Trabzonspor accepts Fatih Tekke resignation after Europa League exit

Summary

Trabzonspor has parted ways with head coach Fatih Tekke following a mutual agreement to terminate his contract. The Turkish club previously rejected the resignation offer from Tekke after a 5-0 aggregate loss to Ferencvaros in the Europa League play-off round. Officials stated the decision aligns with the team's long-term objectives. Tekke, who joined the club in March 2025 and led the side to a third-place finish last season, secured the Turkish Cup during his 18-month tenure. The club remains in European competition and will participate in the Europa Conference League. Trabzonspor recently added high-profile players to the squad including Mohamed Salah, Fabinho, and Andre Onana.
