Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Vintage Hwang Ui-Jo — 7.96

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.96, and nobody on the pitch better.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Nuno Lima pops up at the right end — 7.85

7.85, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.

Squad21 Dec 2026

The step up is real for Salih Malkoçoğlu

At 21 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Match19 Dec 2026

Hwang Ui-Jo sends Alanyaspor past Genclerbirligi

It finished 3‑1, and it was Hwang Ui-Jo’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Alanyaspor.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Appearance number 200 for Ianis Hagi

200 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Ianis Hagi is carrying Alanyaspor

11 goals and a season average of 7.21. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

The manager makes an example of Bruno Viana

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Salih Aktorkoglu: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 3‑1, already talking about the next one.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Alanyaspor pick somebody else ahead of Paulo Victor

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Match12 Dec 2026

Alanyaspor leaking at the back

12 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.

Match12 Dec 2026

Ianis Hagi among the goals in a wild afternoon

6 goals in one match, Ianis Hagi on the scoresheet, and a scoreline that will look like a misprint. Neutrals could not have asked more of Alanyaspor and Kocaelispor.

Match12 Dec 2026

Alanyaspor come up short against Kocaelispor

Kocaelispor left with the points after a 2‑4 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings14 Dec 2026

Ninety minutes of Ianis Hagi at his very best

Marked 8.14. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Alanyaspor.

The dugout14 Dec 2026

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 2‑4 Salih Aktorkoglu left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout14 Dec 2026

Emre Demir gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad14 Dec 2026

A long afternoon for Paulo Victor

Beaten 4 times, with 3 saves for company. Goalkeepers carry these scorelines on their record whoever actually caused them, which is the quiet injustice of the job.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Iván Cédric finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Alanyaspor have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Looking ahead14 Dec 2026

Luccas Claro goes back to face Genclerbirligi

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Luccas Claro’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Alanyaspor needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Emre Demir keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Alanyaspor may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match31 Oct 2026

No end in sight to Alanyaspor's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Alanyaspor has to find a result from somewhere.

Match31 Oct 2026

Alanyaspor are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 6 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Match31 Oct 2026

Alanyaspor come up short against Fatih Karagumruk

Fatih Karagumruk left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Iván Cédric gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Loan watch2 Nov 2026

İzzet Çelik has seen enough of Umraniyespor

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Alanyaspor, and 9 appearances in 11 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Salih Aktorkoglu faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Salih Aktorkoglu after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Squad2 Nov 2026

5 new faces, and Alanyaspor are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Market2 Nov 2026

The Ianis Hagi story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Ianis Hagi signs something — a contract at Alanyaspor or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Squad12 Oct 2026

A late step up for Iván Cédric

At 24 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Luccas Claro wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Alanyaspor can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Luccas Claro wants one last season at home

Every long career reaches the week the last one is thought about. He would like it to be where he started, and Alanyaspor know now that the thought has arrived.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Salih Malkoçoğlu

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Salih Malkoçoğlu, and the manager let it.

Looking ahead12 Oct 2026

Efecan Karaca goes back to face Galatasaray

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Efecan Karaca’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Alanyaspor needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

A door opens for Nicolas Janvier

He asked about his future and was given an answer with minutes in it. The manager has now made a promise in a building where promises are remembered, and the clock on it has started.

Market12 Oct 2026

The Meschack Elia question follows Alanyaspor around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Meschack Elia’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Squad12 Oct 2026

“I want to play”: Deniz Dönmezer speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Deniz Dönmezer asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad5 Oct 2026

7 saves: Paulo Victor was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Match3 Oct 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Alanyaspor and Kayserispor in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Match3 Oct 2026

A bad afternoon for Alanyaspor against Kayserispor

2‑4 to Kayserispor, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Yusuf Özdemir in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Alanyaspor this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Ninety minutes of Ianis Hagi at his very best

Marked 8.16. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Alanyaspor.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Fidan Aliti

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Fidan Aliti, and the manager let it.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Serdar Gürler stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Serdar Gürler and Alanyaspor agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Alanyaspor are still strangers to each other

9 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 2‑4 Salih Aktorkoglu left the room before anybody could ask which.
