Turgut Doğan Şahin (born 2 February 1988) is a Turkish professional footballer who currently plays as a striker for Gençlerbirliği in the Süper Lig.[1]

Life and career

Şahin was born in Tarsus, Mersin. He began his footballing career as an 11-year-old with Yeşilova Yeni Ufukspor. He was transferred to Sefaköy Özmuratspor in 1999, and earned a transfer to Samsunspor in 2004.[1] After spending a season playing for the A2 team, where he scored 11 goals in 26 matches,[1] Şahin was signed to a five-year professional contract.[2][3] He made his debut as a substitute on 9 December 2006, coming on for Mustafa Çiçek in a match against Gaziantep Büyükşehir Belediyespor.[4] Şahin played a total two matches that season.[1] He did not receive many chances at the beginning of the 2007–08 season, but slowly found a place in Orhan Kapucu's team. On 17 February 2008, he scored a goal in the final minutes against Orduspor to help save Samsunspor from defeat. It was his first professional league goal.[5] At the beginning of the 2008–09 season, Şahin was a starter in the Samsunspor side. However, he was unable to score a goal in the first seven matches of the season. Several weeks later, in a match against Gaziantep Büyükşehir Belediyespor, Şahin was involved in a fist fight with Gaziantep B.B. player Hakan Albayrak. Both players received a red card as a result.[6] Four days later, Şahin was given a three match ban by the PFDK for his actions.[7] In his first match back from his ban, Şahin netted a goal against Kartalspor. Şahin received another red card in the 33rd round of the league against Sakaryaspor, resulting in another three match ban for unsportsmanlike conduct.[8] He finished the season with eight goals in 29 matches.[1][9]

Trabzonspor,[10] as well as Ankaraspor, Antalyaspor, Gaziantepspor and Kayserispor showed interest in Şahin and his teammate Sercan Temizyürek before the start of the 2009–10 season, causing the forward to become unsettled.[11] He netted his first goal of the season in the third round against Çaykur Rizespor, having been suspended the first two matches from an outstanding ban.[12] Şahin went on to bag a hat trick against Kayseri Erciyesspor on 21 November 2009.[13] He tallied seven goals by the winter break.[14] Şahin went on to score several more goals, finishing with 15 in 29 matches.[15] At the end of the 2009–10 season, Samsunspor met with three clubs inquiring about Şahin's availability.[16] After several meetings, the club came to terms with MKE Ankaragücü on a $900,000 transfer fee, as well as two players, in exchange for Şahin. Şahin signed a five-year contract with his new club.[17] After battling injuries, he made his debut for the club and scored his first Süper Lig goal in a 4–2 defeat of Galatasaray on 17 October 2010.[18]

International career

Şahin was called up to the Turkey national under-21 football team in 2008.[19] He made his debut in a match against Ukraine on 10 February 2009.[20]
