August Letter


Dear Beşiktaş Supporters,
While celebrating Beşiktaş’s double-cup victory across the country, we were deeply saddened by the loss of two prominent Beşiktaş supporters.
First, we learned the sudden passing of Sports Caster Orhan Şengürbüz, who we know was a die-hard Beşiktaş fan throughout his life. Then, we heard the departure of our former player, “the beautiful man,” Vedat Okyar, who had been fighting cancer for number of years.  May God rest their souls and give strength and peace to their families; we will never forget them. 
We also wish Sports Commentator İlker Ateş, another valuable Beşiktaş celebrity, a quick recovery. 
Dear Beşiktaş Supporters,
After a leaving a very successful season behind, we are at the verge of kicking off a brand new season. This season will definitely be harder than the last for us because every team in the league will try hard to bring us down. Moreover, if we want to retain our current titles, we have to play like true champions. 
Keeping these points in mind and in line with the requests of our coaching staff, we have signed up new players to strengthen our team. We are ready to add more players to our squad if needed. We hope to be atop the standings this upcoming season as well.
It gives me great pride and pleasure to know that the whole Beşiktaş community is behind us. With this opportunity, we wish first of all to our Beşiktaş and then to all our rivals a very successful season.      
Cheers,
Yıldırım Demirören
Board Chairman, Beşiktaş JK
