HARSH DENIAL FROM TFF TO CRISIS CLAIMS IN NATIONAL TEAM

According to the official statement of TFF; the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) responded very harshly to the shaking claims put forward and spreading rapidly in digital broadcasting channels and various social media platforms in recent days that A National Team Technical Director Sergen Yalçın has difficulty communicating with national footballers. The official institution stated that these rumors preoccupying the public definitively do not reflect the truth, clearly emphasizing that the rumors consist entirely of fictional and malicious speculations. While it is underlined with thick lines that there is not any communication problem or crisis experienced between the technical director and the players in the crescent-star squad as claimed, on the contrary, it was stated that the atmosphere within the team is highly positive. Federation officials announced to the public that all footballers sweating the national jersey clearly express that they feel a huge satisfaction from the meetings, idea exchanges, and training methods they realize with Sergen Yalçın and his technical staff. A highly meaningful detail was also included in the official statement made. The Turkish Football Federation made a warning against such actions targeting the unity and solidarity of the A National Team, which is one of the most important values of the Republic of Turkey, whose 103rd founding anniversary we celebrate with massive enthusiasm and pride today, and stands in the position of the common denominator of the Turkish nation. It was reminded with a highly clear language that such harmful, unfounded rhetoric aimed at damaging the strong bonds between the newly starting technical delegation and the footballers right from the first day and disrupting the peace of the team should definitively not be respected. While all football lovers were asked to support the national team, the message was given that the artificial crisis environment desired to be created with fake news will never be allowed to cause the crescent-star squad to deviate from its goals. It was put to a definitive end to the speculations by especially emphasizing that the national team focuses only on its performance on the pitch in this process and continues its works as a single heart to reach the targeted successes.
