Muğlaspor opened the season with 13 new transfers

Muğlaspor started preparations for the new season with 13 new players, 10 local and 3 foreign. The green-white team competing in Trendyol 1st League held the season's first training at Menteşe Ortaköy Facilities. Club President Menaf Kıyanç and board members also followed the training.

“This league is unlike other leagues”

Head Coach Yalçın Koşukavak drew attention to the challenges of the 1st League and stated that the team is going through a dedicated work process. Koşukavak said, "First of all, I congratulate and thank everyone who contributed to Muğlaspor's championship three years in a row. We have new transfers. Yes, we are a bit late due to the club's congress process, but our president and board are making great efforts to shorten this time. Of course, this league has difficulties. This league is different from the others. There are bigger budgets, bigger squads, and bigger organization here. Therefore, we are slightly handicapped, but we are working with great dedication and goodwill. Hopefully, it will be good," he said.

“I returned to my home after 15 years”

Ozan Sol, who started football as a child in 2004 and left Muğlaspor in 2012, returned at age 33 years later, expressing happiness about returning home. Sol said in his statement:

"I am experiencing a day indescribable with words. I returned to my own home after 15 years. I am very happy, proud. There is a good organization. There have been championships three years in a row. Our president, board, they have achieved very good things. I also came back home to add something on top of these achievements. I believe we will finish in the best place at the end of the season. We expect the whole Muğla behind us. They have always supported the teams every year. They also crowned this with championships. This year, we need them more. This league is a bit more challenging than others, but with good organization, we will overcome it. We invite everyone."

Daniel Avramovski: Everything is going very well

Muğlaspor's latest transfer Daniel Avramovski also started training with the team as part of the new season preparations. The 31-year-old number 10 expressed his happiness to join Muğlaspor, saying, "I am very happy to have come to Muğlaspor. I hope everything will be very good for us in the future. For now, everything is going very well. Hopefully, it will get even better," he said.

Regarding the new season, he said, "I wish the new season to be beneficial and auspicious for all teams in our country, especially for Muğlaspor."

“Muğlaspor will be in the upper leagues from now on”

Muğlaspor President Menaf Kıyanç said they are working hard for the club to be permanent in the 1st League. Kıyanç said, "Just as Muğla is Turkey's most beautiful city, Muğla is truly special for Turkey, and Muğlaspor is a special club for Turkey. Especially after three consecutive championships, being in the 1st League this year is very valuable. We are making serious efforts with all our friends for this team to be permanent in the 1st League. There is an incredible change and innovation regarding the technical staff, player selection, and administrative personnel to ensure Muğlaspor competes in a manner befitting Muğla. We are trying to produce a solution suitable for this league. It is not an easy league. Muğlaspor will be in the upper leagues from now on. From now on, it will be a club aiming for this league and leagues above it. Regarding permanence here, we are working on eliminating deficiencies in the stadium, facilities, and field. We will do our best," he said.

“We aim to play our first match in our own stadium”

Club President Menaf Kıyanç stated that the work to eliminate deficiencies at Muğla Atatürk Stadium continues. Kıyanç said, "Especially for new teams moving up with the new league in Turkey, teams must announce an alternative field against the risk of the stadium deficiencies not being resolved. This also applies to other clubs. Therefore, the only stadium in this province where we could play as an alternative is Bodrumspor stadium. We notify this. Currently, work is underway concerning the stadium deficiencies. There is no reason for it not to be ready. We think it will be ready on time. We aim to play our first match in our own stadium. There is no deficiency about us. Only the TFF had a security-related camera and security system issue. We tried to resolve it outside the club. When unsuccessful, we submitted a petition to TFF and made the payment; according to the contract between the Netaş company and TFF, they started working. There is no problem from their side. Youth Sports is currently doing the work. I believe it will be ready," he said.

“Currently, we have made a total of 13 transfers”

Muğlaspor Football Branch President Abdullah Eskihisarlı said the transfer work continues, expressing, "Together with all our board members, especially our president, and our professional football staff, we work 24/7 to bring people suitable for Muğlaspor, suitable for us, and suitable for our fans and community to Muğlaspor. We are dedicating intensive effort for this. Currently, we have made a total of 13 transfers. Three of them are foreign, 10 are local players. Our transfers will of course continue. Last year, we also had loaned players within Muğlaspor, and together with this year's transfers, we currently have 21 players. We are continuing our work. Most likely, there will be a second camp in Burdur around the 18th or 19th of the month. Until that camp, we will evaluate the status of our players here. We will assess the status of the missing positions for transfers and continue to our second camp in Burdur," he said.
