The Turkish national team defeated Georgia 3-2 away in their first match of Group E in the European qualifying round for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Idman.biz reports that after the match, President of the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) İbrahim Hacıosmanoğlu made an interesting statement.
Hacıosmanoğlu responded to the news that had been circulating for a long time that the head coach of the national team, Italian Vincenzo Montella, would receive Turkish citizenship, and confirmed these claims.
"We will make Vincenzo Montella a Turkish citizen as soon as possible," said the TFF president.
The Italian coach, who has played 24 games with the Turkish national team so far, has 13 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses.
