It is alleged that after "Galatasaray"'s 5:1 defeat to German representative "Eintracht" in the Champions League, the former president of "Fenerbahçe", Ali Koç, called Axel Hellmann, the CEO of the Frankfurt club. According to the claim, Koç called Hellmann immediately after the game and thanked him for every goal.
Lent.az reports that this event has been widely covered in the German press.
Xavier Cáceres's claim, writing in the German newspaper "Süddeutsche Zeitung", caused a great stir. Cáceres claimed that former "Fenerbahçe" president Ali Koç called "Eintracht" CEO Axel Hellmann after the game ended.
According to Xavier Cáceres, Ali Koç called Hellmann after the final whistle and thanked him for every goal. The article stated: "The final whistle had not even blown when "Eintracht" CEO Axel Hellmann's phone rang. "Fenerbahçe" president Ali Koç was on the other end of the line, and Hellmann understood very well what he was saying, despite the noise in the "Frankfurt Arena."
This result pleased Koç because his club harbors deep animosity towards its Istanbul neighbor. Koç whispered into the phone: "Thank you." "Thank you five times!"
