Metin Oktay
Metin Oktay joined Galatasaray in 1956 at the age of twenty. His charismatic personality, combined with his enormous talent to score from every angle, made him a fan favourite in his first few games. Aside from a short spell in Italy with Palermo, he has always been with Galatasaray. During his career at Galatasaray, Metin Oktay helped the team to raise its fan potential and stadium revenues. The football legend broke every record in Turkish Football history: Most goals by a player (632), most goals in consecutive seasons by a player (11), most goals by a player in a season (38), most goals in international competition by a Turkish player (19). Better known as “the King” by fans, he was best known for his goal against archrivals Fenerbahçe that broke the net for the gamewinner. His talent to score, matched with his physical presence on the field, made him one of the premier forwards of his time. A giant version of his Number 10 jersey is present in every Galatasaray home game.
