This Wednesday afternoon, Zico’s arrival at Istanbul airport, Turkey, was marked by a big party. Enthusiastic Fenerbahçe rooters offered a warm welcome to the coach, who expressed his satisfaction with the new challenge.
“It was a wonderful welcome. Once again, I must highlight the honor of being able to carry my work on Fenerbahçe at the club’s centennial year. And I have to thank the rooters’ affection upon my arrival”, commented.
At the airport, Zico met the club managers and gave a brief news conference. Then, he visited the club stadium and was impressed with what he saw:
“Undoubtedly, it is a modern stadium which is very similar to the arenas that I saw at the German World Cup. I hope to visit the training camp, but I am sure that we have exceptional facilities to do a great work.”
This Thursday morning, Zico will be introduced to Fenerbahçe players and visit the training camp. Then, he will begin the planning for the Turkish championship, which begins in August, and the UEFA Champions League, where the club plays the qualifying stage.
Zico returns to Rio de Janeiro this weekend to pack for the transfer. Next Wednesday (12/07), he moves to Europe, but the first stop will be in Netherlands, where Fenerbahçe will make a short pre-season. On the next 20th, the team plays a warm up friendly for the first game at the Champions League, to be played on July 26th.
