Trabzonspor has officially accepted the resignation of head coach Fatih Tekke, following a disappointing exit from the Europa League. Initially, the club rejected Tekke's request to step down after the team suffered a heavy 5-0 aggregate loss to Ferencvaros in the play-off round.

In light of the emotional turmoil surrounding the defeat, Trabzonspor reconsidered their stance and reached a mutual agreement with Tekke to part ways. The club's statement emphasized that this decision aligns with their long-term objectives and interests.

During his 18-month tenure, Tekke achieved notable successes, including:

• Leading the team to a third-place finish in the league last season.
• Securing the Turkish Cup, enhancing Trabzonspor's historical legacy.

The club acknowledged Tekke's contributions, highlighting his role in player development and financial gains for Trabzonspor. They expressed gratitude for his efforts and dedication, stating, "We thank our coach for his efforts, his dedicated work, the successes he delivered, and the value he added to Trabzonspor."

As both parties part ways, the focus now shifts to finding a new coach who can help navigate the club towards future successes.
