The 2026-2027 Super League Season is Starting: The War of the Stars

The top league of Turkish football, the Trendyol Super League, is entering its 69th year and is saying hello to one of the most ambitious seasons in its history. The champion of the last four years, Galatasaray, is striving for its fifth consecutive championship title. Powerful rivals such as Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş, and Trabzonspor are also aiming for the top. Galatasaray strengthened its squad by loaning Lesley Ugochukwu. Led by Victor Osimhen, they managed to keep important players like Barış Alper Yılmaz, Gabriel Sara, Leroy Sane, Lucas Torreira, and Davinson Sanchez. Fenerbahçe, on the other hand, made a significant impact on the transfer market with its new management and technical team. After transferring stars like Ederson, Skriniar, and Talisca, they also added Nathan Ake, Mason Greenwood, Vedat Muriç, and Romelu Lukaku to their squad. Beşiktaş, under the management of Italian coach Vincenzo Italiano, is aiming to return to the top. Their squad, which includes Orkun Kökçü, Cerny, and Murillo, was strengthened with the additions of Salih Özcan, Alexander Nübel, and Leandro Trossard. They made a significant move by transferring Dusan Vlahovic. Trabzonspor, led by coach Fatih Tekke, became the most talked-about club in the summer transfer season. The Bordeaux-blues acquired the services of Ernest Muci, young talent Thiery Karadeniz, national players Samet Akaydin, Cenk Özkacar, Aral Şimşir, and Ruslan Malinovskyi. The storm made its biggest impact by transferring the Egyptian superstar Muhammed Salah, who parted ways with Liverpool. This move, which made headlines in the world press, clearly announced that Trabzonspor will be one of the most ambitious actors in the championship race in the new season.
