Surprise information: Mikael Jantunen is leaving the Turkish giants

“We thank Mikael Jantus for his contribution and wish him success in the next phase of his career,” the club’s website states.

Jantunen, 26, was winning the Turkish championship and cup. He signed a two-year contract with the club last summer.

Before Istanbul, Jantunen played in Paris. He told about his life in the giant city of more than 15 million inhabitants In an interview with IS at the beginning of July.

The comments based on this, Fenerbahce’s announcement can be considered a surprise.

Jantunen played a big role in Europe’s top club and played when he was healthy in all matches both in Turkey and in the Euroleague. The winger believed he would be even stronger in the second season of his contract.

“The season was by no means easy, but it was instructive. I think that when you get to rest a bit and look back, you learn quite a lot. Now I know what it takes to play at the absolute top of Europe. If you go one more step up from that, you’re already on top of the world.”

“In itself, I am satisfied with the season, but there is also a lot to improve. Now the starting point is better than the last time I went there straight from the European Championships. Now I enter the season fresher and well trained.”

It remains to be seen where Jantusen’s path to the top of Europe will lead next.
