Nevzat Kaya, Vice President of Trabzonspor Investments and Projects, said, “Our goal is for Trabzonspor to have a sustainable economy. No institution or organization that does not have a proper economy can survive. Trabzonspor is always the target team; sequential championships are our biggest goal as we prepare its infrastructure.”
Trabzonspor’s Vice President of Investments and Projects, Nevzat Kaya, made a statement in an interview with the club magazine.
“I LOST CONSCIOUSNESS DURING THE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH”
Explaining his experiences in the 2021-22 season, where the claret-blue team became the champion, Kaya said, “I cannot forget the before and after match against Antalyaspor, in which our championship was guaranteed. I could not sit still for 2-3 weeks, my blood pressure was constantly going up and down. When the match ended, I really couldn’t believe it. Neither the whistle nor anything else.” “I couldn’t hear. I lost consciousness for a short time and fainted. Thank God, God gave us the opportunity to see this image once again,” he said.
“ROWED CHAMPIONSHIPS ARE OUR BIGGEST GOAL”
Stating that their goal is consecutive championships, Kaya said: “I always went to the matches in some way, bought my lodge, tried to be with my club in every material and spiritual matter. We were always close together, but an offer came to me from our President Ertuğrul Doğan, he wanted us to work together. I accepted it willingly.” I did. I am one of those who know the economic situation of Trabzonspor best. Our dialogues with our President have been progressing very well, especially in the last 4 years. Mr. Doğan’s father-in-law, the late Şükrü Güngör Köleoğlu, is my close family friend and elder. Our President Ertuğrul Doğan and I have become brother and sister. “He is an indescribable Trabzonspor lover and puts his heart and body into this club. Because I trust both his love and his knowledge and experience, we said to our president, ‘I will be with you until the end,’ and set out on this path. Our goal is for Trabzonspor to have a sustainable economy because the economy comes first. No institution or organization that does not have a proper economy can survive, and we want to put this in order in Trabzonspor. As Trabzonspor always prepares its target team and infrastructure, consecutive championships are our biggest goal. “We are a team that has the knowledge and experience to achieve this, works well and cares about Trabzonspor.”
“WE SAVED THE CLUB FROM SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE PAYMENTS WE MADE”
Emphasizing that they saved the club from serious problems with the payments they made after taking over the management of Trabzonspor, Kaya continued as follows: “With a joint effort, we put 80 million Euros into the club’s coffers in a short time, this figure is not an amount that any club in Turkey can find and meet in the short term. With these payments We have saved our club from serious problems and we can look to the future more firmly. We did not achieve this figure by borrowing, we walked the path entirely with sponsor and grant support. As stated by our esteemed President, we will have another move of 25 million Euros in the coming months. With the usage rights of the stadium passing to us, we will also make serious investments in this region. “We will make breakthroughs. In addition, our land work continues and we will announce it with great pleasure after overcoming the bureaucratic problems related to these areas. We are determined to carry our Trabzonspor to a bright future with continuous new moves and new projects.”
“TRABZONSPOR REPRESENTS THE STRUGGLE FOR ME”
Underlining that Trabzonspor represents struggle for him, Kaya said, “Trabzonspor owes its existence to struggles with the powerful. I have been struggling in the automotive industry for more than 30 years in my business life. You are in a constant struggle and competing with different forces, and it is not easy to maintain this. Trabzonspor’ “‘s rebellion against the power that has been going on for years, the spirit he has displayed, his determination to fight and succeed, both inspire and make me proud. For this reason, I am ready to serve for Trabzonspor every moment I breathe, because for me, the love of Trabzonspor is above everything else,” he said.
“THEY SHOULD NOT EXPECT US TO SILENCE IN THE FACE OF INJUSTICE”
Claiming that there are people who do not want Trabzonspor to be successful and popular, Kaya said, “Trabzonspor has faced incredible injustice throughout its history and continues to do so. They obviously stole our championships. Everyone who is conscientious knows and says this anyway. Unfortunately, Trabzonspor is not successful in our country.” And there is a group that does not want it to be popular. As the Trabzonspor board of directors, we are preventing this situation at all levels. The necessary referees received the necessary punishments. We are aware that we will encounter many more problems due to the lack of referees in our country. We never ask for privileges, we never accept this anyway. It is common for everyone. “We only demand justice. We also know how to applaud a good referee. But no one should expect us to remain silent in the face of injustice. Trabzonspor is a great community that seeks its rights in every field to the end and never turns back on this path,” he said.
“TRABZONSPOR IS IN EVERY MOMENT OF OUR FAMILY LIVES”
Stating that Trabzonspor is a part of their family’s life at every moment, Kaya said, “My wife is from Trabzon, I am the son-in-law of Trabzon. Since my wife grew up in Istanbul, she used to support another team at that time, but after she met me, she fell in love with Trabzonspor. It was a miracle that they lived with me and did not receive the love of Trabzonspor! My children.” I am a good Trabzonspor fan. I often take them to the matches depending on their school status. As a family, Trabzonspor is present in almost every moment of our lives. Meanwhile, as a family, we meet Nwakaeme, one of the names who wrote his name in golden letters in the history of Trabzonspor. He is a very characterful and professional football player. He always follows Trabzonspor closely. ” he said.
