As millions of Galatasaray fans know very well;
The vision we inherited from our founder Ali Sami Yen and his friends is that Galatasaray successfully represents Turkey abroad; whatever the conditions are, it has a structure and organization that can compete with world teams.
Considering today’s economic conditions and competitive environment, to protect this heritage; The way to success in Europe, where we always belong, is a new approach, a new roadmap that focuses on financial sustainability.

This model is definitely not a downsizing.
Rather, it is the model for sustainable growth in today’s football industry and financial reality.
In the recent past, under the leadership of Luis Campos, the championships won by the Monaco and Lille teams against the world giant, the phenomenon team of France and Europe, Paris Saint-Germain, and with these championships, the source of approximately 600 million Euros, which the clubs obtained from the sale of football players, It is the clearest and most concrete proof of how the model succeeded.
As of today, we are very aware that Galatasaray does not have a minute to lose. For this reason, we continue to work with all our strength in line with this model and approach.

Our request from our fans;
Sometimes they turn a blind eye to manipulations that we believe to be intentional, especially on social media,
Even though the lost points sadden us all and our struggle did not reflect the results we wanted, especially in the last 2-3 matches, our team and our youth should look at the performance and the light it gives,
Especially supporting our young players,
