I want the Turkish youth to dream of playing in a European Championship like myself and I believe the time has come for Turkey to host a UEFA EURO. Apart from being an excellent bid, hosting the tournament will leave an amazing legacy for our country. As an amputee player, I got my chance thanks to the excellent work of TFF. Awarding Turkey the UEFA EURO 2024 will give more people like myself the opportunity to play football."
