On September 28, 2026, the Karabakh Revival Fund and “Turan
Tovuz” PFC signed a “Memorandum of Understanding” on
cooperation.


The memorandum was signed by Rahman Hajiyev, Chairman of the
Executive Board of the Karabakh Revival Fund, and Ehtiram Guliyev,
Chairman of the Executive Board of “Turan Tovuz” PFC.


Under the memorandum, the revenue from the friendly match
between “Turan Tovuz” PFC and Türkiye’s “Fenerbahçe” club, to be
held in Baku on October 3, will be donated to the Karabakh Revival
Fund.


The funds raised will be directed toward financing projects
aimed at the reconstruction of the liberated territories and the
sustainable development of the region.


Rahman Hajiyev, Chairman of the Executive Board of the Karabakh
Revival Fund, highly valued this noble initiative undertaken in
support of the revival of Garabagh and expressed his gratitude to
the management of “Turan Tovuz” PFC for the initiative.


R. Hajiyev noted that sport is not only a field of competition
and rivalry, but also an important platform that brings together
different segments of society around common goals. According to
him, donating the revenue from the match between two established
clubs, “Turan Tovuz” and “Fenerbahçe,” to the Karabakh Revival Fund
once again demonstrates the unifying and benevolent power of
sport.







Ehtiram Guliyev, Chairman of the Executive Board of “Turan
Tovuz” PFC, said that holding such a match is not only an exciting
football event for fans, but is also of particular significance
because it serves a charitable purpose. According to him, donating
the revenue from the match to the Karabakh Revival Fund gives both
the clubs and their fans an opportunity to support the revival of
Garabagh.


It should be recalled that “Turan Tovuz” and “Fenerbahçe” have
faced each other before. The teams met in the UEFA Cup in 1994.
That year, they faced each other at the Şükrü Saracoğlu Stadium in
Istanbul on August 9 and at the Mehdi Huseynzade Stadium in
Sumgayit on August 23.


Thus, “Turan Tovuz” and “Fenerbahçe” will meet again 32 years
later, this time in a friendly match.


It should be recalled that the “Turan Tovuz” – “Fenerbahçe”
match, to be held at the Tofiq Bahramov Republican Stadium on
October 3, will kick off at 8:00 p.m.
