Fenerbahçe'ye Marco Asensio müjdesi! Dönüş maçı belli oldu

Marco Asensio, who has been away from the team for a while due to an injury sustained at Fenerbahçe, is expected to return to the pitch with the Rizespor match to be played after the international break.

Injury Process and Return to the Squad

Wearing the Fenerbahçe jersey, Marco Asensio suffered an injury in the Konyaspor match on August 22 and missed a total of five official matches.

The Spanish footballer was included in the squad again 28 days after his injury in the Eyüpspor match, but was not risked by head coach İsmail Kartal.

Rizespor Match and Expectations

Asensio, who holds an important place in head coach İsmail Kartal's tactical plan and passing traffic in the attacking line, is anticipated to make his actual return in the Rizespor match.

The experienced player, who has recorded one goal and one assist in seven official matches this season, aims to join the team in much better physical readiness after the break.

Busy and Critical Fixture in October

Following the international break, Fenerbahçe faces a very challenging October period in which six official matches will be played within 22 days.

The yellow-navy blue team will face critical tests in both the Süper Lig and the Champions League during this process.

October Match Schedule

Fenerbahçe will begin the fixture with an away match against Rizespor on October 10, will be the guest of Aston Villa on October 14, and will host Alanyaspor at home on October 17.

The team will also face Slavia Prag on October 20, play a derby match against Galatasaray on October 26, and close out the month with the Göztepe match on October 31.
