According to the statement made by the yellow-red club, Wesley Sneijder, who played for Galatasaray in 2013-2017, visited the Ali Sami Yen Sports Complex Nef Stadium and toured the club museum.
The former Dutch star, who gained great acclaim with his performance and goals while wearing the Galatasaray jersey, met with intense interest from the fans.
Sneijder, who re-appeared on the Nef Stadium turf years later and was photographed to commemorate the day, told GSTV, “I had incredible moments here. I remembered what I felt when I entered the tunnel I came from with the team bus. Those moments came back to life in my memory when our fans welcomed me.” said.
Sneijder said that the yellow-red team is happy to win the championship in Spor Toto Super League this season.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t be here for the championship game. I wanted to be here for the Fenerbahce game, but I couldn’t come because I had a shoot in the Netherlands. As a player who plays in the Fenerbahce game and scores a goal, I think it’s one of the biggest derbies in the world. Scoring a goal in that match makes you feel like you’re living on the clouds. “If there is a trophy in the middle, it is Galatasaray that deserves it first. The players did their best until the last moment. I am very happy for the championship. I follow almost every match. It would not be right to name the players in the team. They played in Galatasaray. I am very happy to win that jersey. I don’t know what to wear.” Deserving players put their best effort.”
Stating that he supports Inter, one of their former teams, in the UEFA Champions League final to be held in Istanbul tomorrow, Sneijder said, “Atatürk Olympic Stadium has been prepared very well. Istanbul deserves to host this final until the end. I remembered the match we played with Beşiktaş at the Olympic Stadium and won. . Being in Istanbul again made me feel great.” used the phrases.
