ANNOUNCEMENT OF SEPARATION FROM ATAMAN
“We will evaluate this with our club president at the end of the season. I wish it to be good for everyone. Maybe a change is needed. A change of air is needed for everyone. I don’t know what will happen right now, but for now, I can say clearly that any agreement I have made with any club is needed. No. There are offers, there are negotiations, but there is no agreement, but as I said, we were pretty worn out this season.
Maybe we all need a change. Anadolu Efes Club is my family. Not only in these last 5 seasons, but almost 20 years have passed. Together with our president Tuncay Özilhan, we decide what is necessary for the good of the club. At the moment, our focus will be on the Turkish League, the Play-Offs of the Turkish League. So we’re not the only team eliminated. 8 teams out of 18 only play the Final Four. Other teams that started with big goals like us could not enter and concentrated on the league. We will also concentrate on the league. At the end of the season, we will make the necessary evaluations together with our president.”
