3rd Fatih Terim spell at Galatasaray begins / Football News

Fatih Terim 's for third time manager in GalatasarayGalatasaray İstanbul appoints Fatih Terim manager for his third spell at the club, newly elected Galatasaray chairman Unal Aysal informed, hoping he will restore the club’s fortunes after a bitterly disappointing season.

“We shook hands with Terim, meaning the deal is signed, sealed and delivered,” Ünal Aysal said. “From now on all our efforts will be canalised for the success of Galatasaray, and we all agreed in unison to turn the team back into glory.” he added.

Fatih Terim now 58 years old enjoyed a golden era during his first spell during 1996-2000. He led Galatasaray to the UEFA Cup victory in 2000, a feat that has not been repeated by any other football club in the land. He also won four consecutive turkish league championships in 1996-97, 1997-98, 1998-99 and 1999-2000.

However things started to go south with Fatih Terim’s second spell in Galatasaray during 2002-04 seasons. Fatih Terim ended up winning nothing at all during those seasons with Galatasaray. He and his players had to be tortured in a 6-0 defeat against archrivals Fenerbahce. As e result he lasted only two years and was sacked by the late Galatasaray Chairman Özhan Canaydın to part ways with the club.

İs Fatih Terim ‘s third time in Galatasaray really the charm?

Fatih Terim’s third coming to Galatasaray stirred controversy in Turkey. Some Galatasaray fans regard Fatih ‘the emperor’ Terim as the only option to ‘save’ Galatasaray after the clubs worst season in its history, some other fans state that Terim’s time is done since he had refused to get the job, when previously asked twice by former president Adnan Polat, while Frank Rijkaard was training the team. Both sides couldn’t agree on the terms of the conract then, not long ago, so it was stated.

Fatih Terim was unsuccessful in his last club team management attempts and he is not well-known for young players development. Some sports commentators claim, he is the reason for the currently German nationals Mesut Ozil and Serdar Tasci ‘s national team choices.

Time will tell if Fatih Terim will be the savour for Galatasaray İstanbul sought after.
