Tempers go at Gaziantep

Luis Pérez 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.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Gaziantep

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.

Match15 Aug 2026

Gaziantep come up short against Konyaspor

Konyaspor left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

One of our own: Salih Dursun joins the Gaziantep first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Salih Dursun is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

One of our own: Cenk Karaman joins the Gaziantep first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Cenk Karaman is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Ibrahim Unai steps up from the Gaziantep academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ibrahim Unai has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Cenk Ozdemir steps up from the Gaziantep academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Cenk Ozdemir has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Nobody could get near Mohamed Bayo

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Nihad Mujakić 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.

Gaziantep turn down Besiktas for Drissa Camara

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

Squad10 Aug 2026

Drissa Camara signs on for more

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

Squad10 Aug 2026

Denis Drăguş 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 Gaziantep this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad10 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Drissa Camara

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Drissa Camara, and the manager let it.

Market10 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Gaziantep and Petr Reinberk

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Market10 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Deian Sorescu's contract

48 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Alexandru Maxim signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Alexandru Maxim and Gaziantep agree another 2 years.

Still no ink between Gaziantep and Alexandru Maxim

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Gaziantep, another week without a signature from Alexandru Maxim.

The clock runs on Luis Pérez's contract

36 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Drissa Camara knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Gaziantep, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at Gaziantep training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Burak Bozan 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.
