Galatasaray presidential candidate Dursun Özbek has stated that he will offer Felipe Melo a contract extension at the end of the season.
The Istanbul Giants will elect a new president at the end of the season after Duygun Yarsuvat’s one-year reign comes to an end.
“We must keep the skeleton of the team intact,” Dursun Özbek told the Turkish newspaper Sabah.
