Borussia Dortmund signed him when he was 17 years old and started with the regular squad at the age of 18. He transferred to Galatasaray in 1984–85 season and played there for two seasons. He returned to Borussia Dortmund for the 1986–87 season. He then signed for Sarıyer and became team captain. In 1989, he returned for a second spell at Galatasaray where he played until retirement in 1994.

gollark: Oh, right, the actual video: this is an amateur potatOS security researcher revealing a bug they found.
gollark: So the general and robust fix for this would be to stop doing I/O this way for anything but performance-sensitive and fairly robust (terminal, FS) I/O and API stuff, but PotatOS has so much legacy code that that would actually be very hard.
gollark: As it turns out, you can take a perfectly safe function with out of sandbox access and make it very not safe by controlling what responses it gets from HTTP requests and whatever.
gollark: And *another* Lua quirk more particular to CC is a heavy emphasis on event-driven I/O via coroutines.
