The head coach situation at Fenerbahçe has once again come to the fore. Expectations were set extremely high following the José Mourinho move that made a huge splash in the Yellow-Navy Blue community at the start of the season. However, the team's recent performance and internal club developments have brought up the question: "Will they continue with Mourinho?"

While these debates continue, sports pundit Yusuf Kenan Çalık made a striking claim. In his post, Çalık stated that in the event of a potential parting of ways with Mourinho, Fenerbahçe management already has a new head coach plan in place.

“If Mourinho is sacked, the figure replacing him will once again be İsmail Kartal. The board has been preparing for this possibility for some time. Groundwork is being laid regarding this matter. I am putting what I know out here.”

Experienced manager İsmail Kartal is known for stepping in during Fenerbahçe's critical periods in recent years and turning the team around. He gained massive fan backing, particularly last season, due to his consistent league performance and the playing style he developed. Kartal, who also maintains strong relations with the board, is reportedly seen as the "most reliable option" in the event of a managerial change.
