It is for us at that time.” It will be good. It will be very good for us as we will play a match 1 day a week later. Our biggest goal is to come to the best place in the league. Our primary goal is to get a good place in the league. Then all our weight will be on the Turkish Cup. This break will be very perfect for us. It will be better with the arrival of our injured friends. We want to make good use of this break. We want to play a friendly match, but we can’t. This is a problem for us. If we can find it, we will play a team match, or we will play a friendly match in Istanbul. Of course, our goal is the Turkish Cup, but before that we should be good in the league. needed,” he said.
“COACHING IS REALLY DIFFICULT”
“You played your 622nd game. It’s a record, what can you say?” Çalimbay said, “I have never dealt with numbers, my football career has always been stable.

I love football very much. I grew up in Sivas and finished primary school here. Coaching is really hard. It’s harder than football. It’s a difficult job for us. May Allah make it easy for all our friends. I always kept working. I was very happy when I got this news today. “My brother Samet is older than me and I took the captainship from him. I will coach as much as I can and then I will look at other things,” he said.
