Fenerbahçe was on the training pitch again Tuesday to work toward this weekend's Turkcell Süper Lig contest against Bursaspor. The Canaries take on the Green Crocs Friday night in Bursa, but Fener could be without two key players in week 25.

The team met Tuesday morning at 11:00 local time and practiced for just under an hour and a half at the Samandıra Training Facilities. After Coach Aragones held a brief meeting at midfield, Carlos Cascallana led the team in warmups. Following warmups, the team was divided into two squads to work on Friday's gameplan with an emphasis on attacking and defending. The two squads rotated and Tuesday's training session ended with some stretching.

Alex de Souza did not train with the team on Tuesday and is still recovering from injury. Gökhan Gönül joined the team early on, but left during today's session after experiencing pain in his right ankle. The team will practice again at 11:00 local time Wednesday morning.

Fenerbahçe star Roberto Carlos just signed a new deal with the club earlier this year, but he may not finish his career with the Canaries as previously thought. Reports Tuesday indicate the Brazilian legend has left the door open for a possible return to Spain.

Roberto Carlos just signed a new, one-year deal with Fenerbahçe in January. It is believed that the star will retire with the Canaries and take on a possible coaching role with the club. However, reports Tuesday say that Carlos is monitoring a possible shakeup at a former club for a potential return.

Carlos says if former president Florentino Perez comes back to Real Madrid, he may reunite with him in Spain. "If Florentino comes and says ’Roberto, come back,' I will have to think about it and talk about it. I have never said I won’t come back," he told Spain’s Cope Radio.

The defender played for Real Madrid from 1996-2007 before joining Fener on a two-year deal. The Spanish club will elect a new president this summer, with Perez emerging as a leading candidate to lead the club once more.

Real "is the team of my life and I would be lying if I said that I don’t want to go back, but we must wait and see the people who come back with Florentino and what their plans are," Carlos said. "If Perez is elected, I think it would be necessary for me to speak with them. If you have the chance to play football at the highest level again, I think you should."
