During a professional career that lasted nearly 20 years, he played for 13 clubs, most notably Kayserispor for whom he was the top scorer with during the 2005–06 Süper Lig season.[1]
Career
He joined Kayserispor in 2003 and became the top goal scorer in the Süper Lig scoring 25 goals in the 2005–06 season.[1] His goal scoring ability was also apparent in European competitions, where he scored 6 goals in 8 games during Kayserispor's UEFA Intertoto Cup campaign in the same season, in which they became the first team from Turkey to win the competition.
He attracted attention from a number of top clubs, namely Galatasaray[2] who tried to sign him during the summer break in 2007, but Kayserispor refused all offers, as well as another from Russian team FC Rubin Kazan for €6 million.[3] He transferred to Trabzonspor on June 3, 2008[4] for a club record €6.25 million.[5]
