Cakir allowed to referee in Switzerland

The TFF Central Referee Committee made a decision that will go down in the history of Turkish football when it announced that it had parted ways with several experienced referees. Despite the decision of the Appeals Committee that overturned the original decision and allowed the referees and observers to return to their classifications, MHK has not assigned Cüneyt Çakir and the other referees to the any matches of the Super League.
There has recently been a positive development about the TFF's silence around the invitation of the Swiss Football Federation to Cüneyt Çakir, which has become one of the biggest polemic issues of recent days. It turned out that the TFF gave a positive response to the request made by the Swiss Football Federation for Çakir and his team, saying "Please contact Cüneyt Çakir and his team and start the working process". Urs Meier, one of Switzerland's most important referees ever, said "Yes, the invitation is correct. I hope Cüneyt gets the necessary permission to referee matches in Switzerland and with this will increase his chances to go to the World Cup."
