Turkish Super League 2026/27 Season

[Mustang Shelby]

Both Vlahovic and Lukaku arrived today. Turkish Super League has become striker's paradise. We already had Osimhen, Onuachu and Shomurodov, now 2 more superstars have joined. The race for the top scorer title is going to be very competitive.

I hope the new stars stay injury-free and play in most of the matches. Fans of every team want to watch them. Anatolian clubs will also generate significant revenue from these matches. Matches against these teams will definitely sell out. Overall these transfers will contribute to the economy. I also think both were signed at very reasonable prices. The clubs did a good job.

Lukaku and Vlahovic were injured last year and didn't get much playing time with their teams. However, they are preparing well this year and if they avoid injuries, they could be contenders for the top scorer title in Turkey. It's good news for Osimhen because more players have arrived from Italy, and he knows many of them. I'm sure he enjoys competition, and if he stays at Galatasaray, he will be competing with these players for the top scorer title.

Vlahovic is really a great transfer.
in my opinion, this is the biggest move Besiktas has made this season. barring any injuries or bad luck, i think a healthy Vlahovic will score at least 20 league goals.

I looked at the top goal scorers in the last decade, and in Turkey, only 19 players have surpassed the 20-goal mark in the last ten years. Right now, Fenerbahçe fans are predicting Lukaku will surpass 20 goals, Galatasaray fans for Osimhen, Beşiktaş fans for Vlahovic, and Trabzonspor fans for Salah. I hope this happens and we see a high-scoring league. Because the more goals, the more enjoyable the league becomes. However, I don't think that will be the case. If one of these players surpasses the 20-goal mark, I think it will be considered a success. I don't think all four of them will surpass 20 goals.

Lukaku has arrived in Istanbul. After undergoing a medical examination tomorrow, he will sign a 1+1 year contract.
He came off the bench to score goals during the World Cup, but the fact that he played a total of only 44 minutes all of last season makes me wonder.

There is also an interesting statistic: players moving from Napoli to Türkiye have led their new teams to the championship. Hamšík joined Trabzonspor, and they became champions.
Osimhen joined Galatasaray, and they became champions. Based on this data, if Lukaku joins, Fenerbahçe will be the champions this year.

The striker I personally wanted was Vlahović, but Beşiktaş signed him instead.
Lukaku's playing style is similar to that of Vedat Muriqi, who used to play for us.
I wanted Vlahović because his style is different.
I hope Lukaku leads us to the championship this year, too.

If he had played last year, Fenerbahçe would've had to spend an extra 50 million or so anyway.

There is also an interesting statistic: players moving from Napoli to Türkiye have led their new teams to the championship. Hamšík joined Trabzonspor, and they became champions.
Osimhen joined Galatasaray, and they became champions. Based on this data, if Lukaku joins, Fenerbahçe will be the champions this year.

That's an interesting stat. I looked at the other players who came here from Napoli. When Goran Pandev arrived in the 2014/15 season, Galatasaray won the championship. Pandev didn't contribute that much though. Burak and Sneijder carried that team.

In the 2022/23 season, Dries Mertens came to Galatasaray from Napoli and Galatasaray won the championship again.

There's also Gökhan İnler. Although Gökhan İnler didn't come directly from Napoli, he arrived in Turkish Super League after becoming known as a Napoli legend and went on to win championships with both Beşiktaş and Başakşehir.

I don't know if Fenerbahçe will win the championship this year with the contributions of Lukaku, but it's certain that if it happens, it will make the Napoli > Türkiye connection even more interesting.

Lukaku is an absolutely perfect signing for the Turkish league...

The concept of the static forward no longer exists in Europe. No matter what your physical attributes are, you need to be a good striker. The best example of this is Haaland. In Europe, it’s no longer really possible to secure a spot in the starting lineup based solely on your physical attributes...

Since the Turkish league is open to being played with the systems and tactics of 20–30 years ago, this type of player can still make an impact...

Lukaku didnt play too much lately last season and that is worrying for the team. He played in the world cup where he played solid but still i think he needs a lot more time to be used to the team and to the field. I think he is now even fat that he has a few kilos too much and he needs to get that down so he could perform well.

Vlahovic was a good option but i guess he was too expensive and now Besiktas has him and they really paid too much for him,lets see if it will pay of for Besiktas.

this is a huge signing for sure. Vlahovic belongs to that vanishing breed of traditional, purebred center forwards the Vieri and Batistuta mold. for the first time since Aboubakar in his prime, Beşiktaş has secured a truly ferocious target man.

[meser#]

In the end, we signed Vlahovic rather than Nunez or Lukaku.
There are rumors that his salary is very high, but that won't matter at all once he leads us to the championship.
Osimhen is putting in a highly productive performance at Galatasaray. No one talks about the 25 million euros he earns; yet, had there been a failure, that figure would have been brought up at every opportunity.

Vlahovic needs at least a month to settle into the team; it seems unlikely he will start in the first eleven immediately upon arrival.
Depending on how the match unfolds, I expect Trossard to step up and take responsibility this evening.
In my opinion, Trossard remains our most valuable signing.

Vlahovic is a much better transfer than Nunez and Lukaku I think. I know he also had an injury time period last season. However that was like the only serious injury of his career so far.

On the other hand it isn't the same for Lukaku. He has been continually injured in the recent times.    I won't be surprised if he doesn't stay healthy for most part of the season again.

Nunez isn't a better finisher than Vlahovic now to me. He was once at Benfica but I don't see it anymore.

[püsür]

But that's why i don't understand all this tension, because Galatasaray still remains a very strong team, with an absolutely competitive squad. So i don't see the reason for such agitation on the part of the fans. Of course, it would certainly be nice to have news from the market with a view to improving the team, but if this doesn't happen, for a single season they would still have a very strong team.

I think Galatasaray should strengthen their defense before the start of the new season, because last season their defense was clearly the weaker part of the team and often let them down. But the new season starts this weekend already, so despite the transfer window still being open, I don't think they are going to plan any major changes. In fact, I still believe Galatasaray are the strongest team in the Turkish league, and it will still be very difficult for any other team to compete with them.

I don't share your views. Right now, Fenerbahçe and Beşiktaş have significantly strengthened their squads, and even Trabzonspor. These three teams have a chance to win against Galatasaray if they play them now. Galatasaray has largely retained its squad. While their rivals are making excellent transfers, Galatasaray has simply chosen to watch. Either they are secretly pursuing their transfer policies, or they are genuinely choosing to fall behind this year. If they are choosing to fall behind, I think they are making a huge mistake. They might not even qualify for the Champions League this year. And they should also consider that they will be playing in the Champions League. If they want to be among the top 24 teams, they have to bring in good players.

I really just wonder, cuz I really don't know enough about Galatasaray's squad. What position they are lacking some players? What has changed since May or June. Again, I really don't know yet. I couldn't follow Galatasaray news. Any players left the club? I know they tried to get Leao, and couldn't be successful yet. Who was playing in his position for the last couple of years. Maybe the Galatasaray fans just want to hear some big names because Fenerbahçe, Beşiktaş and Trabzonspor had big transfers. But if something is working good, no need to change it. Galatasaray already had a great squad and that's why they got the title for years. I think still they can go for the 5th title. Even though they can't succeed it, it is good for the league to have a new champion.

I'm sure he enjoys competition, and if he stays at Galatasaray, he will be competing with these players for the top scorer title.

Vlahovic's injury didn't last very long, whereas Lukaku missed almost the entire season.
Lukaku is 33 years old, while Vlahovic is 26.
If they run into injury problems again, Fenerbahçe won't get any benefit from Lukaku at all.
Both players are set to undergo medical examinations today.
I am particularly curious to see how Lukaku fares.
Looking at the recent signings, Vlahovic strikes me as the player who will make a real mark on the league.

[karabiber]

Fenerbahçe has finally completed the Lukaku transfer. The deal was finalized for a very reasonable price. In my opinion, it would have been impossible to sign a star player like Lukaku for that price.

Aziz Yıldırım prioritizes making a splash. Whether the star player is in top form or not, his goal is to generate buzz. Aziz Yıldırım has succeeded in this. However, in my opinion, Lukaku’s overall fitness is in terrible shape. This player saw very little playing time last year and hasn’t maintained his physical condition at all. If he can get his fitness back on track, Fenerbahçe fans will love him. He’s a player with excellent finishing skills, but he lacks discipline and fitness.

[Lida93]

Snip.

Mohammed Salah doesn't have much to offer at Trabzonspor, he is old now and he doesn't have that vibrant strength in him anymore which I believe was one the reason Liverpool didn't hesitate to let me go to Trabzonspors as they knew he has nothing of importance to render in service to the club.
Trabzonspor fans are happy about Mohammad Salah transfer to Trabzonspor,for them it's their biggest signing ever so I understand but as time passes,they probably might realise it someday that Mohamed Salah isn't what they expect.

No my friend, you can't write off Mo. Salah as being of no importance to any team, I disagree with that base on the performance I saw Salah delivered for his country Egypt in the World Cup, the stats are there to see for yourself. His age may have advanced but he still has the skills and experience that can be usefully supportive to any team, especially for a player like Salah that have played in the EPL for years I don't see his age slowing him down in the way you making it. He's not called the Egyptian King for nothing so I doubt he wouldn't shine at Trabzonspor.

[bastisisca]

Finally for the Fenerbahçe fans, things seem to go good for Fenerbahçe. Thanks to Skrinnar and Ake, as well as Guendouzi and Kanté, Fenerbahçe now boasts a solid defence and midfield for the first time in many years. Vedat, Asensio, Talisca, Lukaku and Greenwood more than cover this team’s goalscoring needs. The only question marks at the moment are the centre-backs and the goalkeeper; if they could bring Ederson back, he’ll also make a significant contribution to the team. Unless there are further reinforcements to the current squads, Fenerbahçe have the upper hand. They have more goal-scoring players than Galatasaray. They seem to have players who complement each other better. This could be disrupted by Talisca, as well as by the moves Galatasaray makes.

If Fenerbahce managed to bring Lukaku into their squad, then Fenerbahce would truly become a very competitive team in every aspect and from every point of view for every department.

From the goalkeeper to the attack, there would be players of enormous quality who can cause quite a few problems for teams like Galatasaray.

[martinom]

Beşiktaş had been pursuing this player for a long time. Although he wasn't Vlahovic's first choice, he somehow ended up joining Beşiktaş.
It's a fantastic transfer for Beşiktaş, and the player is still young. It's truly exciting to see Beşiktaş building such a squad to compete for the championship this season.
Considering the Lukaku and Salah transfers, this one promises to yield even greater success.

I believe that Vlahovic, out of pride, did not stay at Juve because he had made a request that the club did not accept, because his value was viewed as low by the club. Since the performances of the last two years were questionable, they chose not to focus on such excessive spending as he requested, which in my opinion the club did well, and therefore, in order not to lower his salary, he chose to go and play in Türkiye.

[ILuckyGuyI]

I've seen some news like this about Osimhen.



Thankfully we aren't interested in selling him right now. Man, we can't even make transfers this summer. There is only one loan signing and that's it! I'm so mad at Galatasaray for that.

If we lose Osimhen also that'd make me sure that we can't win the league this time. Because he is our everything now.

Our league is much easier for Vlahovic so I think he has a good potential for being top scorer of the league this season. He can just score in every way considering he is 1,90 m tall also.    He can do better than Oh about finishing.

[verdinio]

Finally we signed a top-class striker. Oh played really well since he arrived but he wasn't a top-class striker. Besides that, he would never have been enough on his own during the long league marathon. You can't rely on Semih and Mustafa, we saw how it went in previous seasons. Beşiktaş needed a striker more than anything else and Vlahovic is coming.

I hope Vlahovic has a Mario Gomez like impact at Beşiktaş and becomes one of the key contributors to the championship. Closing a transfer like this at such a low price is also a transfer success in its own right. Kudos to Önder Özen and Serdal Adalı.

I wish Besiktas to find a Vlahovic who plays like in Fiorentina, because if they give the performances he gave to Juve, it will take them little time to recoup the expense made. However, Vlahovic was also a good player at Juventus, but with performances that were, i must say, objectively questionable.

I think there are issues between Vlahovic and Juventus. He didn't really get along with Spalletti, either; I suspect Spalletti didn't want him. Otherwise, it’s clear he’s a better striker than Jonathan David.
The thing that worries me most about Vlahovic is his undisciplined lifestyle; he doesn't exactly live like a professional.
He’s about to sign a lucrative contract. I just hope that once he sees Istanbul's nightlife, he doesn't end up unable to even walk on the pitch.
After all, his undisciplined lifestyle at Juventus had previously led to talk of him being dropped from the squad a couple of years ago.
I hope he doesn't put our team through that same situation.

The fact remains that this is a headline transfer base on the transfer fees. Lukaku is a big name player with many years of football experience, Yes his fitness is a question mark right now but I believe with time he can find his rhythm back at Fenerbach. One very good thing about Lukaku is that if he's fit, he can score up to 20+ goals per season, let's watch what happens next while the season runs.
