🇹🇷 Bursaspor are known for their crazy crocodile stadium, but since relegation from the Turkish Süper Lig in 2019, the club has been on a ride.

Mounting debts led to the club being in the fourth tier of Turkish football by 2024, just thirteen years after competing in the UEFA Champions League.

However, back-to-back promotions have followed, and Bursaspor have their eyes firmly locked on the Süper Lig as they sit top of the second tier.

It would be some going to go from the top flight to the fourth tier and back in eight years!

🇫🇷 Since relegation from Ligue 1 in 2017, it hasn’t been a good time to be a fan of AS Nancy Lorraine, who, six years later, finished thirteenth in the third tier of French football.

However, since that season, it’s been up for Nancy, who are now aiming for a second promotion in three seasons. This comes with the club sitting second in Ligue 2, a spot that would see them promoted back to the top flight after nine years away!

🇧🇷 This weekend was a historic one for Brazilian club Grêmio Novorizontino as they won promotion to Série A (the top flight of Brazil) for the first time in their history!

Grêmio Novorizontino were only founded in 2010 and come from a municipality of just over 41,000, Novo Horizonte.

What an achievement becoming one of the smallest clubs to have ever graced the top flight in Brazil.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 In 2013, Wigan Athletic had the best period in the clubs history. The club won the FA Cup and went on to play in the UEFA Europa League as a second tier club the following season.

However, since then it’s been all downhill and this season, Wigan could sink to all new low.

The club currently sit 21st in League One, which would see Wigan relegated to League Two for the first time since 1997!

Are Wigan going to find themselves in the fourth tier of English football just thirteen years after that historic FA Cup victory?!

🇳🇱 Not sure I’ve ever seen a goalkeeper so furious at the award of a penalty that he’s managed to get himself sent off then attempted to give the referee his gloves.

Step forward Etienne Vaessen of FC Groningen!

Tonight, Las Palmas will take to the field not in their traditional yellow and blue kit but in the white and blue of their rivals Tenerife.

It’s an incredible gesture of show support to Tenerife after the passing of Jesús de Miguel last week.

🚨🇫🇮 INTER TURKU ARE CHAMPIONS!!!

What a season for Inter Turku of Finland who as well as winning their first ever European ties have just won the Veikkausliiga title!

It’s only the clubs second ever title and came after a dramatic final day that saw HJK Helsinki to hand the title to Inter Turku for the first time since 2008!

[The European Football Express @TheEuroFE]

🇫🇷 It’s a Parisian party up at the top of a Ligue 1 this season! 🥳

@SweeperPod @FotMob Losing 1-0 at home, in the penultimate match to the team that beat you to the title on H2H makes it even worse!

[The European Football Express @TheEuroFE]

🇩🇪 You know what, something tells me that Hertha Berlin might go on to win promotion to the Bundesliga!

Ten wins in their first eleven is ridiculous!

[The European Football Express @TheEuroFE]

🇮🇹 It’s been 26 years since Lazio last won the Scudetto, which is far too long for a club the size of Lazio.

However, this season under Gennaro Gattuso might be their best chance yet to end that wait!

Lazio have started the season tremendously, winning nine of their opening ten Serie A matches to sit top of the tree.

With no European football to contend with, there’s nothing to distract them from the task of winning a first Serie A title since the year 2000.

🇫🇷 Valenciennes were playing Ligue 1 football back in 2014 but nowadays find themselves fighting relegation in the third tier of French football.

The fans are so angry about this demise that they started playing circus music during their match last night!

🇭🇷 Hajduk Split fans found a rather unique way of watching their sides UEFA Conference League match in Gibraltar today!

🇵🇹 We seriously need to talk about Torreense. The club currently sit 12th in the second tier of Portuguese football after winning the Taça de Portugal last season.

Despite this, Torreense have won two matches in the UEFA Europa League and currently sit ahead of Real Sociedad, Crystal Palace, Hoffenheim, Celta Vigo, AC Milan and Marseille in the League Phase table.

What an achievement so far from the club!

🇵🇹 SECOND TIER TORREENSE WERE LOSING HEADING INTO STOPPAGE TIME BUT ENDED UP WINNING AGAINST ARARAT ARMENIA!!!!

WHAT A WAY TO END THE EUROPEAN WEEK!!!
