In the last part of the last season, the young coach, who was in the coaching chair in Fenerbahçe, was dismissed by President Ali Koç despite his important performance.
While Vitor Pereira, who was appointed to replace Belözoğlu, parted ways, Fenerbahçe remained far from the championship race. The 41-year-old coach, who worked in 29 league matches at the beginning of Fenerbahçe and Başakşehir, collected 19 wins, 6 draws and 4 defeats and totaled 63 points. Emde Belözoğlu also achieved an average of 2.17 points.
