Turkish Football Federation offers national team job to Sergen Yalçın
The Turkish Football Federation has reportedly offered Sergen Yalçın the head coach job of the national team, vacant since Vincenzo Montella’s exit. A final decision is expected after a board meeting on Tuesday.
Officials of the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) have offered Sergen Yalçın the head coach position of Türkiye’s national football team, A Spor reporter Erdem Akbaş said. The federation is expected to make its final decision after a board meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 20.
The TFF has not yet made an official statement on the offer.
Search for a successor to Montella
The federation announced on Oct. 9, after a board meeting, that it had decided not to continue with head coach Vincenzo Montella. It gave no details on the reasons for the split. Montella had led the national team since September 2023.
Beşiktaş was Yalçın’s last job
