High-Profile Coaches Decline Fenerbahce Opportunity

After parting ways with Jose Mourinho, Fenerbahce hoped to attract another high-profile manager. However, they now have to consider candidates who weren’t at the top of their initial list.

Details: According to Fanatik, both Luciano Spalletti and Ange Postecoglou, who were previously linked to the club, will not be coming to Istanbul. Spalletti has turned down the offer, indicating he prefers to spend another year with his family in Tuscany and is not looking at options from Fenerbahce or any other club right now.

Postecoglou has also rejected the offer, as he had already verbally agreed to join another club before talks with Fenerbahce started. The focus at Şükrü Saracoğlu is now shifting to a familiar name: Ismail Kartal, who might take charge of the team for the fourth time, and the third time in the last four years.

Reminder: Mourinho was let go after Fenerbahcefailed to advance in the Champions League. During his tenure, the club was unable to reach the group stage of the tournament for the second consecutive year.
