Aurelio to Start for Turkiye vs. Luxembourg

Turkish national manager Fatih Terim announced on Monday that newly-appointed Fenerbahce star Marco "Mehmet" Aurelio will start for Turkiye in their international friendly vs. Luxembourg on Wednesday. This will mark the first time in history that a foreign-born player will play for Turkiye. Aurelio has lived in Turkiye for five years and just recently was awarded Turkish citizenship. It was announced by Terim last week that Aurelio has been chosen to the squad.
