Ankaragücü President İlhami Alparslan made a statement to the yellow and black community. 'Dear MKE Ankaragücü Family, for approximately six months, I have been the president of the club, and with my management, we have been working hard to keep Ankaragücü alive and to bring it back to its feet. Praise be to God, we have been able to pay the salaries of our employees, the salaries of our footballers, their advances, and their premiums using the resources we have. In the previous season, of course, we would have liked to see Ankaragücü play in the playoffs or even compete for the championship. However, we finished sixth. This result is considered a success by some, while others may not. However, considering the current financial situation, I believe that finishing sixth is not something to be underestimated. Believe me, I would have liked to have a magic wand to wipe out all of Ankaragücü's debts, to create a team with no transfer restrictions, strong squads, and a clean financial structure. However, the reality is different. Nevertheless, I do not blame anyone. I took on this responsibility knowing the heavy debt burden. When I accepted the presidency, I never made a promise to wipe out all the debts. My goal is to keep Ankaragücü alive, to keep it standing, and to take it to the future. Today, we have extended the contracts of our footballer brothers, and we have maintained our team's skeleton without breaking it up. We have gotten to know the league, its rivals, and the shortcomings and inexperience in football management. All these have given us valuable experiences. Now, we have a new season ahead of us. Our footballers, who have gotten to know each other better, our technical staff, who closely follow the dynamics of the league, and the experiences we have gained will enable us to be in the championship race in the 2026-2027 season, God willing. I believe this with all my heart. Our preparations for the new season are going on at full speed. On one hand, we are continuing our sponsorship and advertising work, and on the other hand, we are working on creating a form, product store, and camp organization that suits Ankara and Ankaragücü. Our goal is to take Ankaragücü to a stronger, more institutional, and more hopeful future. Those who ask what our goal is, my goal is clear: to take MKE Ankaragücü to its rightful place, to bring this big family back to the upper leagues, and to bring our city's team back to its strong days. May God not make us ashamed on this path we have taken. May God keep our unity and solidarity intact. I hope we will achieve success and enjoy good days together. With my respects, İlhami Alparslan, President of MKE Ankaragücü Football Club
