After the original date for the December duel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was canceled at short notice, an alternative date was chosen for April 7th. Fenerbahce, which is already at loggerheads with the Turkish association TFF due to several incidents, did not agree to this.
The professionals from second place in the Süper Lig will play the first leg of the quarter-finals of the UEFA Conference League against Olympiakos on Thursday.
However, the TFF rejected a transfer, as did Fener’s request to appoint a foreign referee. Accordingly, it was decided to send the U19s to Sanliurfa and thus avoid a penalty for not appearing.
