Galatasaray Coach Domenico Torrent answered the questions of press members before training at Florya Metin Oktay Facilities.
The Spanish coach, who lost his first 4 matches in Galatasaray, said, “Will you stay for a long time?” He gave an interesting answer to the question.
Torrent used the following statements in its statement:
“Technicians always have their suitcases ready. This is the truth of the matter. Because in football one looks at the result, not the causes. I used to say, ‘I won’t work before the season, I won’t buy a team’. But you can’t say ‘No’ to some teams. Galatasaray is one of them… My aim is to stay here for many years. Right work. We are trying to do it. If we stay for many years, the club is satisfied with the work we do, we are also satisfied. For some foreign coaches, it doesn’t matter where they work, they say, ‘I worked here or there’. I’m not like that. I feel belonging. It’s such a problem right now However, the warmth of the club towards me is very nice.
“WHEN YOU SAY TURKISH FOOTBALL, G.SARAY IS THE FIRST THING TO MIND”
Being the coach of Galatasaray is an opportunity rather than a challenge. Do you know how important Galatasaray is outside of Turkey? When you say Turkish football, Turkish team, the first thing that comes to mind is Galatasaray. There are other clubs known, but the first one is Galatasaray. The whole world knows when you mention this club. It is the only 4-star team to have won a trophy in Europe.”
