The club's President Adil Gevrek told the team's board at a meeting that they reached a deal with Yalçın for a two-year contract and he would officially sign in the coming days. The 46-year-old Yalçın will replace Erol Bulut, who left the club for Aytemiz Alanyaspor after helping the team to fifth, behind Trabzonspor, in the 2018-19 season.
