Turkey qualified for the World Cup for the first time in 24 years, but after consecutive losses to Australia and Paraguay in the group stage, they were eliminated. The Turkish Football Federation president stated that head coach Montella will not be fired.

Turkish Football Federation President İbrahim Hacıosmanoğlu explicitly stated: "We will support both the head coach of this team and the players.

"This is not a club. Look at club teams—it is precisely the lack of continuity that leads to failure. You cannot simply remove 15 players and bring in 15 new ones.

"You cannot fire a head coach and hire a new one. You cannot remove a president and appoint a new one. Therefore, we support our players. We will never replace those who have walked this path with us with those we meet halfway."

The Turkish Football Federation president's focus is already on the distant future, with Euro 2028 being their next target. He said, "These people will bring us the same success again."
