Sergen Yalçın's Contract Length Revealed: Türkiye Role to Run Until 2027 TFF Elections

Sergen Yalçın is expected to take charge of the Türkiye national team following the departure of Vincenzo Montella. The Turkish Football Federation (TFF) is understood to have reached an agreement in principle with the experienced 53-year-old coach, and the details of the planned contract have now emerged.

The TFF board reportedly intends to hand Yalçın a contract that will run until the federation's elections in the summer of 2027.

First Test Could Come Against Belgium

Should Yalçın officially take the job, he is expected to face his first test in charge of the national side in November. The Crescent-Stars, who play their final two UEFA Nations League group games that month, host Belgium in İzmir on 12 November. Türkiye then travel to face France on 15 November.

The 53-year-old enjoyed the greatest success of his career in charge of Beşiktaş in 2020-21, leading the Black Eagles to both the Süper Lig title and the Turkish Cup.
