[slice me nice]

Kerem Gönlüm will continue his everlasting career in Sakarya BB. I am happy to see him in action, no matter how old is he, he is always the guy who is giving his maximum on floor. If he plays well there, he may even be the solution for our PF problem at age 40.

Okben Ulubay and Emircan Koşut to Giresun Belediyespor.

Okben Ulubay and Emircan Koşut to Giresun Belediyespor.

Good news, especially if their VP Fatih Yamak is sincere, who said their team will consist mainly of young domestic players and will have a max of 4 foreigners.

They have extended coach Alexsandar Trifunovic's contract and added Ricardo Ledo from the summer league.

Not to piss off Fener fans, but this guy has been one of the best and most consistent Turkish players ever. Hats off to him.

Incredible the turnover of players at some teams, but probably not too surprising.

- post copied from EL signings thread - Levenspiel

[Levenspiel]

Only 6 teams out of 16 has a turnover ratio below 50%. [Fener (14%), Tofas (29%), Istanbul BSB (30%), Darussafaka (40%), Efes (41%), Buyukcekmece (46%)]
