The spending limits for Super League teams have been set.

At the top of the standings are, in order, Galatasaray, Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş, and Trabzonspor; the approximate budgets of these teams in euros are as follows:

Galatasaray: 168m€
Fenerbahçe: 118m€
Beşiktaş: 77m€
Trabzonspor: 47m€

I hope the teams don’t sign players who will almost exhaust their limited budgets in just one or two seasons. Although the Super League is a league that’s growing in terms of budget, attracting world-class “star” players to this league is still financially risky.

There's a huge financial difference between Galatasaray and other teams like Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor. Knowing that nowadays teams with a lot of money can afford good players, it becomes very difficult for teams with less money to fight for the title. I think that if other teams want to fight for the title now (because in the past this wasn't a big problem, like 15 years ago teams could have little money and still fight for the title) they should strive to earn a lot of money to hire better players. I have no doubt that we will see Galatasaray become champions again.

Vedat Muriç has returned to Turkey and to Fenerbahçe. We had previously seen him play for Gençlerbirliği, Rizespor, and Fenerbahçe. He had been playing in Italy and Spain for about five seasons and was re-signed by Fenerbahçe following the appointment of Aziz Yıldırım as the club’s new president. Last season in La Liga, he scored a total of 23 goals while playing for Mallorca. He’s truly a great center forward. The race to find a star center forward in the Super League has turned into a competition among all the teams. Let’s see how he performs.

I think he's a great player. He's proven himself in La Liga. He had a fantastic season at Mallorca. He's exactly the kind of striker Fenerbahçe is looking for. I'd love to see a striker like that join Beşiktaş too. When Fenerbahçe sold him to Lazio 6 years ago, they made 15 million Euro profit. Now 6 years later, they've brought him back for the same amount. I wonder what would have happened if Muriqi had stayed at Fenerbahçe during those 6 seasons? I think they would have won at least 1 championship. That's just how strange life is.

Fenerbahçe signed the same player, but an older version of him... Its purchasing power six years ago is most likely not the same; 15 million euros six years ago might have had greater purchasing power based on today’s conditions, but no matter how we look at it, this doesn’t seem like a very smart transfer move to me. If they were going to bring him back, why did they sell him in the first place?
