Galatasaray President Dursun Özbek spoke at the event organized by 1905 Culture Art Sports Association.

Dursun Özbek stated that the news about Mauro Icardi, who is claimed to return to the team, does not reflect the truth. Galatasaray President Özbek stated that he had farewell plans for the Argentinian striker and that he was waiting for news from Icardi.

STATEMENT OF MAURO ICARDI FROM DURSUN ÖZBEK

Özbek said, "I made an offer for Mauro Icardi to stay. His expectations were much higher, not only in financial terms. Icardi is an icon, he gave a lot to Galatasaray, he is someone who made a generation of Galatasaray players. The difficulty is more than the salary he will receive, we have a center forward like Osimhen, how can the two not go together, which one will you use, that is, the real problem was here. It was not a guarantee of playing or anything like that. We do not deny the services he provided, I also told him. He replied for the farewell organization. "I'm waiting, if he comes, we are planning a farewell," he said.

"MUSLERA GOT WET"

Dursun Özbek said, "He came during my time, he contributed a lot to Galatasaray. Football is like this. It has a certain period of time. Players are getting older, their performance is decreasing. They have to stay at the highest level. You know our fans, if their performance decreases in two matches, the situation reaches a different dimension. (They whistled Muslera on his voice): They whistled Muslera..."
