Arda Turan Emerges as a Top Candidate for Trabzonspor Managerial Post
As the burgundy-blue club continues with an interim management, Arda Turan has risen back to the top of the list after talks with foreign candidates yielded no results.
While Trabzonspor's search for a permanent manager continues, the lack of results from contacts established with foreign candidates has brought the name of Arda Turan back to the forefront.
Interim Process and Search
Trabzonspor is currently entrusted to the temporary management of Hüseyin Çimşir. The search for a permanent manager for the team continues.
Contacts with Foreign Candidates
It was reported that contacts were established with prominent names such as Antonio Conte, Marcelino, and Sérgio Conceição, but no concrete results emerged due to high expectations.
Arda Turan and Shakhtar Developments
Arda Turan, who was previously officially probed through Shakhtar, has been moved back to the top of the burgundy-blues' list following the deadlocks encountered.
The Shakhtar club had notified in writing that they did not consider a managerial change during the initial approach, citing seasonal goals and Champions League plans.
Future Period Plans
On the Trabzonspor front, it is planned to re-probe the pulse of both Arda Turan and the Shakhtar management after the completion of the European campaign.
Other Names on the List
Şenol Güneş and Vítor Pereira are also among the options evaluated by the management, though the management exhibits a cautious stance regarding Pereira.
Foreign Coach Emphasis and Palladino
While President Ertuğrul Doğan's earlier emphasis that the priority is a foreign coach affects the process, the name of Italian manager Raffaele Palladino is also circulating behind the scenes.
