Karşıyaka, one of the 3rd League teams, commenced its new season preparations with a training session held at the Selçuk Yaşar Facilities in Çiğli. Under the management of head coach Burhanettin Basatemür, with whom the club's board has re-agreed, the green-and-red team will train in İzmir until August 5. Kaf-Kaf, planning to play 3 friendly matches during this period, will enter a training camp at Fenerbahçe's Düzce Topuk Yaylası Facilities between August 8 and 20. While the Karşıyaka football branch management followed yesterday's first training session with the full squad, former board member Mustafa Özçakar was also among those observing the practice.
Winger Adem Yeşilyurt (19), who transferred from Karşıyaka to Fenerbahçe, followed the green-and-red team's first training session. It was learned that the young footballer, who reunited with his former teammates, was on leave. Adem, who chatted with Karşıyaka officials, also had the opportunity to meet with head coach Burhanettin Basatemür, who helped him break into the first team last season. Karşıyaka officials wished Adem success before the new season. As per the agreement made in this transfer, the İzmir representative will not only receive a 500,000 euro transfer fee but will also loan three players from Fenerbahçe and will not pay a fee for the camp.
