Market4 Jan 2027

Samsunspor turn down Fenerbahce for Carlo Holse

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Both of them Marius Mouandilmadji's — 8.94

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.94, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market4 Jan 2027

Emre Kılınç asks to leave Samsunspor

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

The dugout4 Jan 2027

Efe Töruz keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Samsunspor may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Carlo Holse runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Words exchanged at Samsunspor

Chérif N'Diaye and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Real improvement from Efe Töruz at Samsunspor

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Efe Töruz is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Market4 Jan 2027

Eyes on Jaurès Assoumou again

The phone has started ringing about Jaurès Assoumou again, and this time the name on the line is Hatayspor. Samsunspor are listening politely and promising nothing.

Match2 Jan 2027

A bad afternoon for Samsunspor against Goztepe

2‑3 to Goztepe, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Match5 Dec 2026

No end in sight to Samsunspor's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Samsunspor has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad7 Dec 2026

The step up is real for Efe Töruz

At 20 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad7 Dec 2026

A falling-out at Samsunspor

Antoine Makoumbou and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings7 Dec 2026

Nobody could get near Carlo Holse

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match5 Dec 2026

Samsunspor come up short against Besiktas

Besiktas left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Words at Samsunspor training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Toni Borevković is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Appearance number 200 for Chérif N'Diaye

200 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

Murat Unai answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

When it matters, Antoine Makoumbou plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Carlo Holse signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Carlo Holse and Samsunspor agree another 4 years.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Ľubomír Šatka gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market12 Oct 2026

The Chérif N'Diaye question follows Samsunspor around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Chérif N'Diaye’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

Rayyan Baniya faces his old club

Konyaspor next, and one man in the Samsunspor dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Rick van Drongelen knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Rick van Drongelen trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Emre Kılınç wants to know why he earns less

Numbers do not stay secret in a dressing room. He is not asking for more than he is worth; he is asking why somebody beside him is worth more, and Samsunspor have no good answer.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Efe Töruz is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Both jobs done by Antoine Makoumbou — 7.10

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 14 actions, 7.10, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

The terraces14 Sep 2026

The crowd has taken to Joe Mendes

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match12 Sep 2026

Afonso Sousa sends Samsunspor past Genclerbirligi

It finished 2‑0, and it was Afonso Sousa’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Samsunspor.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Samsunspor training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Toni Borevković is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Afonso Sousa was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.10. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Chérif N'Diaye in the eights

A performance of 8.04 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at Samsunspor

Doğan Erdoğan and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Murat Unai: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 2‑0, already talking about the next one.
