The Fenerbahce Sentinel
Match12 Aug 2028
Fenerbahce cannot stop winning
11 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.
Player ratings14 Aug 2028
Juan Santos scores twice — 8.15
Two goals and a mark of 8.15 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Rizespor tell Fenerbahce: Dom Ballard 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.

Yusuf Sarı says Fenerbahce went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Mattéo Guendouzi wants more than Fenerbahce are offering
“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Mattéo Guendouzi 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 Fenerbahce this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match12 Aug 2028
Fenerbahce keep winning on the road
5 away wins in a row. Travelling support is the truest kind, and this season it is being repaid in the only currency that counts.
Match12 Aug 2028
Fenerbahce make home a hard place to visit
10 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Fenerbahce
The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.
