Caner Erkin’s Memory of the Galatasaray Match
„On that day, he threw my belt.“ Caner stated that he was very angry when he learned from someone else that he had been excluded from the squad for the Galatasaray match: „He had kicked me. If he came and told me, there would be no problem. He is the coach, I am the player. You shouldn’t let him play, there is no problem. I said to Pereira: Who are you? I have given everything I had here!“ „The president told me to welcome him.“ Caner Erkin mentioned that Ali Koç laughed when he said he would bring Pereira back to the team and said, „I said, ‚Okay, there’s no problem for me, but I don’t know if he has one.‘ ‚You will meet him,‘ he said.
