TFF Süper Kupa 2011 should have been the 39th edition of the Turkish Super Cup since its establishment as Presidential Cup in 1966. The match was going to be contested between the 2010–11 Süper Lig champions Fenerbahçe and the 2010–11 Turkish Cup winners Beşiktaş. The match was to be played on 31 July 2011[1] but the TFF postponed[2] but was cancelled after the match fixing scandal investigations. The venue for the final would have been the Erzurum Universiade Arena, which would have hosted its first Turkish Super Cup final.
On 27 December 2021, Istanbul 13th High Criminal Court acquitted[3] Fenerbahçe executives Aziz Yıldırım, Şekip Mosturoğlu, İlhan Ekşioğlu and others, which made the issue of replaying the match moot on Fenerbahçe side and they posted an announcement about their application to the Turkish Football Federation on 30 December.[4] On Beşiktaş side, Emre Karadağ, Beşiktaş deputy chairman, declared that they would be willing to compete.[5] The Turkish Football Federation president Nihat Özdemir said that the issue would be under review in the board meeting, also that he supports the idea of replaying the match.[6]
