In Trabzonspor, all eyes are now on the Fenerbahçe derby, which will be played on Sunday. The claret-blue team, who beat the yellow-dark blue team, who are fighting for the championship, 3-2 in Kadıköy in the first half of the league this season, want to send their arch-rival away from Papara Park empty-handed. After the Karagümrük match, which was won 5-1, coach Abdullah Avcı said, “There will be changes in the squad depending on the opponent,” and is making preparations accordingly. In the Karagümrük match, the burgundy-blue coach, who wanted to include Fernandez in the game in the 79th minute and see the player’s current situation, pulled Mendy to the midfield. It is expected that Avcı will place Fernandez at centre-back in the derby, move Mendy to midfield, his main position, and overwhelm his opponent with pressing.
