The Fenerbahce in Estambul, one of the three most traditional clubs in Turkey, he dismissed his coach, the Portuguese Vitor Pereira, after the match against Besiktas on Sunday, which ended 2-2 and prompted requests for resignation from the fans.

The party that left Pereira out was, on the other hand, the return of Ecuadorian striker Enner Valencia after seven weeks of absence due to injury.
