Beşiktaş, on the other hand, parted ways with Valerien İsmael, Şenol Güneş, Burak Yılmaz, Rıza Çalımbay, Fernando Santos, Giovanni Van Bronckhorst, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and Sergen Yalçın. In Trabzonspor, during a period where Abdullah Avcı served twice, Nenad Bjelica, Şenol Güneş, and Fatih Tekke took charge of the team. A total of 18 managerial changes were recorded across the three major arch-rivals.
