Early career

He won a World Fair-Play award after informing the referee that he scored a goal with his hand in a match between Galatasaray and Denizlispor youth teams. The goal was cancelled and he was shown a yellow card.[1][2]

Club career

Galatasaray

He has been trained by the Galatasaray youth department and was chosen for the professional team by Gheorghe Hagi in the 2004/2005 season. He never appeared in any official match squad. He made his debut in a Turkish Cup match against Mersin İdman Yurdu, on October 27, 2005. He scored a goal in the same match.

Turkish legendary striker Hakan Şükür has said, "Özgürcan is a new product of Galatasaray football academy. He is my 'crown prince'(heir apparent)". This statement raised expectations from him by the media. He has many important features as a striker (i.e.) good at jumping, heading, stamina and composure despite his young age. "[3]

gollark: Emu Wars Extended is particularly weird.
gollark: It's *basically* the same as the original EWO though, at least up to about halfway through arc 2.
gollark: Technically, not all of the Emu War foes are actually animals.
gollark: Hand-drawn sprites.
gollark: But due to licensing issues it can't use the original graphics.
