Talisca Not in Konyaspor Match Lineup
Fenerbahçe star Anderson Talisca was not in the lineup for the Konyaspor match. Prior to the game, manager İsmail Kartal explained that the player was rested due to the 10+4 rule and the fatigue from playing all pre‑season matches since the start of the season.
Transfer Rumors Unfounded
Rumors about Talisca’s transfer are not reflecting reality at the moment. Fenerbahçe fans frequently ask “Is Talisca leaving?” but officials have denied these claims. Kartal said, “Regarding Talisca, I’ll say it without you asking. Because of the 10+4 rule and the heavy load from all pre‑season matches since the start of the season, he played every match. We did not include him in this match’s squad because of that rule and also because of the Lyon match. We did this entirely to rest him.”
Kartal’s Statement
Kartal emphasized that the only thought behind resting Talisca was to “win by playing good football.” This statement shows that the speculation about his transfer is incorrect. Talisca’s performance, highlighted by the goals he has scored this season, will play an important role in Fenerbahçe’s future plans.
