Fans won't forgive ex-Benfica star's 'betrayal' at Fenerbahçe-Galatasaray | OneFootball

Kerem Akturkoglu was the main target in the Fenerbahçe–Galatasaray match. The Turkish international and former Benfica footballer faced the wrath of the champion team's fans for the "betrayal" he committed by signing with the city's major rival in the final days of the transfer market.

The response from Galatasaray's fan base was, to say the least, comical. Before the match, which ended in a draw, the fans made a point of printing notes with Kerem Akturkoglu's face in the center, referencing the fact that the player had signed a massive contract with Fenerbahçe.

As revealed, before the kickoff, the fans gathered around the eternal rival's stadium, and upon spotting the former Benfica number 7, they did not hesitate to throw the mentioned notes while loudly booing the footballer.

Kerem Akturkoglu — who has been shining in the Fenerbahçe jersey — was a starter for his team in a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. Galatasaray, the reigning champion, was the first to score, with Leroy Sané. The equalizing goal came during injury time, courtesy of Jhon Durán.

Kerem Akturkoglu — currently valued at 23 million euros — has been one of the highlights for the Istanbul club. This season, wearing the Fenerbahçe jersey, the Turkish international has played in 14 official matches. In the 1,045 minutes he was on the field, the winger scored four goals and provided three assists.
