Montella has finalized Turkey’s starting eleven for their crucial World Cup play-off match against Kosovo. The game, scheduled for Tuesday at 20:45, will determine which nation progresses to the larger competition for World Cup representatives. As detailed by “Turkish Players,” the manager intends to stick with the core structure he implemented during his time with Romania.
However, a key change is anticipated on the right side of the defense. Zeki Çelik is expected to replace Mert Müldür in that position. This adjustment reflects Montella’s tactical considerations for the upcoming challenge.
The midfield will remain anchored by established stars, including Calhanoglu, who has successfully returned from injury just in time for the match. Alongside him will be the dynamic trio of Alper, Guler, and Yildiz, forming the core of Turkey’s attacking prowess. The projected lineup for Turkey is Cakir; Kadioglu, Abdulkerim, Akaydin, Çelik; Calhanoglu, Yuksek; Alper, Guler, Yildiz, Akturkoglu.
This selection demonstrates Montella’s strategic approach as Turkey prepares for their important encounter against Kosovo.
