Efes coach has recounted the anecdote during Euroleague Media Day

During Anadolu Efes’ turn for the Euroleague Media Day, coach Ergin Ataman has recounted an anecdote dating back to his Galatasaray days: “About 6 or 7 years ago, President Mr. Ünal Aysal asked me if I could also coach the soccer team. It wasn’t a firm offer, but that interview happened. At that time, I said that such a thing can happen after 1 or 2 years of training and cannot be answered immediately. He left the presidency after a couple of months. Luckily we didn’t get down that road because now we could be crawling into the third or fourth division; the world of football is a different world”.
