By speaking to the Turkish sports magazine “Socrates” Bobby Dixon himself confirmed what it’s rumored for some time. The next stop of his career will be Fenerbahce/Ulker and he spoke about his decision
“I agreed with Fenerbahce. I have not talked yet with Zeljko Obradovic. I’m looking forward to the day I will wear their uniform. (Karsiyaka’s) Ufuk Sarica is an outstanding coach. I have definitely a great respect for his ideas. But like I said, I’ve been here for years and no one can tell me that I don’t do my best every day. In fact, they can not even imply that. They are questioning my commitment to the team. I can understand the coach Sarıca. I was a big part of his plan in Karsiyaka. But I wanted to work on a new adventure, at a higher level, I needed a different challenge. I have to do the best for my family. That’s not a personal decision? How it’s possible not to accept this kind of an offer?”.
Ufuk Sarica also confirmed that Dixon is on his way to Fenerbahce by saying publicly that this is not the right decision for him and the team.
