Squad12 Oct 2026

The step up is real for Hüseyin Ertürk

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.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at Eyupspor

Lucas Calegari 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.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Gilbert Mendy signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Gilbert Mendy commits to Eyupspor for another 5 years.

Squad12 Oct 2026

8 new faces, and Eyupspor are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Erdem Gökçe

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market12 Oct 2026

The Lucas Calegari question follows Eyupspor around

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

Squad28 Sep 2026

The knee: Lenny Pintor out for 17 days

17 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Eyupspor lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Match26 Sep 2026

The wait goes on for Eyupspor

6 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Lucas Calegari in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Eyupspor this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad28 Sep 2026

The step up is real for Umut Keseci

At 22 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.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Appearance number 100 for Ángel Torres

100 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.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Ángel Torres runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

Half-satisfied: Erkan Sahin on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Match26 Sep 2026

No goals between Eyupspor and Rizespor

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. Rizespor will be the happier side with the point.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

No place in the plan for Jankat Yılmaz

The manager wanted a different profile for this opponent, which is a real football reason and no consolation. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Eyupspor close the window on a squad of their own making

15 in and 2 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Eyupspor go back to the board over Hüseyin Türkmen

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $96.7K — a club that wants Hüseyin Türkmen enough to be asked twice.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Eyupspor

Lucas Calegari was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets7 Sep 2026

No deal for Dean Liço at that price

Eyupspor offered $76.0K; Boluspor said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Transfer targets7 Sep 2026

Trabzonspor tell Eyupspor: René Mitongo is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A step back for Marcos Felipe at Eyupspor

Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

Squad7 Sep 2026

8 new faces, and Eyupspor are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A place in the month's best eleven for Gilbert Mendy

Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Gilbert Mendy has come out of that comparison in the side, and Eyupspor have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Prince Ampem 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 Prince Ampem trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
