HERE IS THE SUMMARY OF THE MONTELLA SEASON

Vincenzo Montella, who left his post by the decision of the Turkish Football Federation Board of Directors, had 21 wins, 5 draws and 14 losses in 40 matches he played as the head of the National Football Team.

During the Montella period, Türkiye reached the quarter-finals of EURO 2024 and managed to move from League B to League A in the UEFA Nations League. The Crescent and Stars team passed the play-off stage in the World Cup Qualifiers and earned the right to participate in the World Cup after 24 years.

However, the national team lost their first two matches in the World Cup and said goodbye to the tournament. Montella's last test was the 3-1 defeat against Italy in the UEFA Nations A League. Türkiye finished all four matches in this group without points.
