Graeme Souness returned to Galatasaray to join in with the title celebrations.
In 1996, the Scot almost sparked a riot planting a Gala flag at Fenerbahce.
The former Sky Pundit was manager of the club in the 1995/96 season and after beating city rivals Fenerbahce in the Turkish Cup final he crazily planted a Galatasaray flag in the centre circle of Fenerbahce’s pitch.
