The Turkish Football Association officially announced that national team goalkeeper Özer left the training camp without permission, and the Football Association decided to recruit Istanbul goalkeeper Sengzel.

Ozer’s social media posted a message in response to the Turkish Football Association: “Before participating in the national team training, I had explained my physical condition and related pain issues to the technical team, and stated that if I could not be included in the match list, I should recover through rest and treatment. Despite this, after receiving the call-up, I still joined the training with the pride of wearing the national team jersey. During the training, my communication attitude and fighting spirit were never compromised.

When I saw the match list, I realized that the communication these days was meaningless-the performance and fighting spirit of those players who had won glory for the country overseas were not valued at all in the eyes of the national team decision-makers. In order to avoid affecting the training camp and team morale, I chose to convey my thoughts to the technical team after returning to Istanbul, rather than during the game or after the game. With the knowledge and consent of the management team, I voluntarily left the training camp.

This decision is not directed at any teammate, nor is there any disrespect intended. On the contrary, I have always been proud to be part of an exceptional rotation of goalkeepers - partners who have played alongside each other for many years and whose excellence I am proud of.

Being selected for the national team is the proudest achievement in my career. I will continue to give everything to this jersey in the future. As a national team athlete who always aims to represent the country's honor rather than personal interests, I am eager to be in a fair and just environment and leave the handling of the current incident and the wording of related statements to the public for judgment. "

Ozer plays for Lille. He has played 8 games for Lille this season and conceded 10 goals.
