Galatasaray posted a pointed social media message on Monday morning, responding to comments made by Fenerbahçe president Aziz Yıldırım. The club's official X account shared an image featuring Galatasaray High School, Galatasaray University, and Galatasaray Island under the caption 'Good Morning #Galatasaray Family'.

The post is seen as a direct reply to Yıldırım's statements during Fenerbahçe's Ordinary General Assembly held on Sunday at the Ülker Sports and Event Hall. Yıldırım had said, "Our President asked, 'Why do you want a university so much?' I said, 'The community wants it." He also outlined future projects, stating, "God willing, we will carry out two more projects with this administration. One is Fenerbahçe Island in a nearby place."

Galatasaray's silent yet symbolic move quickly spread among fans, garnering thousands of likes and comments. The club effectively reminded everyone of its long-established institutions. Sitting second in the Süper Lig with 13 points from 6 games, the team's form reads three wins and two defeats in its last five outings. Galatasaray's next league fixture is at home against 8th-placed Kasımpaşa on October 9th at the Ali Sami Yen Sports Complex.
