Göztepe, which continued its 2nd stage activities in the Slovenia town of Bled before the new season in the SUPER League, was in a good mood. The yellow-reds, who entered the camp in Slovenia for the third time, trained twice a day under the management of coach Stanimir Stoilov, and the ambition and desire of all the players gave hope to the community. Goztepe made transfer moves earlier compared to previous years, and strikers Sinclair Armstrong and Andre Henrique, midfielder Alex Matos and defender Sonko Sundberg adapted to the team in a short time.
While the jersey competition in Göz-Göz, which beat Croatia's Gorica team 2-0 in the first friendly match, increased to the highest level, Club President Rasmus Ankersen did not leave the team alone in the camp even for a moment. Honorary President Mehmet Sepil came to the camp abroad for the first time in a long time and supported the team. Goalkeepers Lis and Ekrem, defender Heliton, midfielder Krastev and striker Jeh have parted ways with Göztepe, and team captain left-back İsmail Köybaşı also quit football.
İsmail opened the door to a brand new career by joining Göztepe's technical team this season. Brazilian striker Juan, Nigerian midfielder Dennis and right-back Arda Okan, whose sale is on the agenda in Göztepe, have not received the offers expected by the management so far. President Ankersen announced that there would be no sale if the players were not given the money they wanted. It was reported that at least 2 more player reinforcements will be made in Göztepe, which continues its foreign transfer activities.
