35-year-old Montenegrin centre-back Stefan Savic is an option for departure from Trabzonspor. According to media discussion, there is a possibility of him being included in the technical staff because of his high risk of injury; however, Fatih Tekke is not in favor of this decision. Savić, who joined the club in July 2024, has a contract that runs until June 30, 2027. The defender has 78 caps and 9 goals for Montenegro, and his Transfermarkt market value is currently €400k.
