Trabzonspor’s New Coach Search Intensifies: Şenol Güneş or Fatih Tekke?

After parting ways with Abdullah Avcı, Trabzonspor is set to make a decision on their new head coach within 48 hours. The Black Sea club has narrowed down its choices to two legendary names: Şenol Güneş and Fatih Tekke. The management will decide on the new coach who will lead the team after the international break.

Trabzonspor, which started the season with high expectations but faced disappointment, officially parted ways with Abdullah Avcı. In their search for a new head coach, the club has focused on only two names. Club President Ertuğrul Doğan has two notable names on his agenda: Şenol Güneş, a legendary figure in the club’s history, and Fatih Tekke, another unforgettable player. Immediately after Avcı’s departure, meetings were held with both candidates, and detailed reports on the team were obtained from them.

Fatih Tekke and Şenol Güneş Await the Decision

The Trabzonspor board is set to make its final decision after meetings to be held within the next 48 hours, and the new head coach will be in charge of the team after the international break. Following Avcı’s departure, Fatih Tekke emerged as the first candidate. While fans have been pushing for Tekke on social media, prominent figures within the club have been suggesting Şenol Güneş to the management. Currently, Tekke, who is coaching Alanyaspor, has received permission from his club to negotiate and consider an offer. After the Fenerbahçe match, Tekke emphasized that he is ready to take on the role and is now in Istanbul, awaiting news from the Trabzonspor board.

Sergen Yalçın Not Considered for Trabzonspor

The Trabzonspor management has closed the door on any foreign coach candidates proposed by agents. Within the domestic market, Sergen Yalçın was suggested, but the board immediately dismissed this option. Prior to Abdullah Avcı, negotiations had been held with Sergen Yalçın, but no agreement was reached.

Who Will Be Trabzonspor’s New Head Coach?

As the decision-making process continues for Trabzonspor’s new head coach, Şenol Güneş and Fatih Tekke are the frontrunners. The club’s management will make their decision within 48 hours, taking into account the expectations of the fans and the suggestions from the club’s community.
