Galatasaray’s Title Hopes Dented as Ziyech Suspended for Crucial Turkish Super Lig Match

Blow for Galatasaray: their star striker, Hakim Ziyech, will miss next Sunday’s match against Konyaspor, counting for the last round of the Turkish Super Lig.
The suspension of the Moroccan international for accumulation of yellow cards poses a major challenge for coach Okan Buruk, as the title is at stake.
As reported by the Turkish site Fotomac, Ziyech received a yellow card during the derby lost against Fenerbahce (1-0), which earns him a one-match suspension. This absence is a blow for Galatasaray, who rely heavily on the Moroccan international. Ziyech has been a key element in the team’s run this season, and his absence will be particularly felt in this decisive match for the title, writes the same source.
Okan Buruk is looking for solutions to make up for his absence. The technical staff has decided to trust Kerem Aktürkoğlu to replace him. Aktürkoğlu will have the heavy task of leading his team to victory against Konyaspor, a team that has posed problems for Galatasaray in recent years, especially at home.
In case of a draw or a victory, Hakim Ziyech’s team will win the Turkish championship.
