SHINED DURING BUCASPOR’S TITLE-WINNING SEASON
In 2019, Oğuz Aydın was loaned to Karacabey for one season, and during the 2020-2021 season, he was part of Bucaspor’s squad that won the 3rd Division title. He caught attention by recording 11 goals and 3 assists in 36 matches. The young player quickly found himself on the radar of several clubs.
FENERBAHÇE SIGNED BARIŞ INSTEAD OF OĞUZ
The first official offer for Oğuz came from Çaykur Rizespor. The negotiations were overseen by club president Cihan Aktaş, who believed Oğuz had a very bright future and shared this with those close to him. In 2020, Bucaspor began collaborating with Fenerbahçe through a youth academy project. During that period, President Aktaş personally recommended Oğuz Aydın to Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç. However, following a decision by the youth academy coaches, Fenerbahçe signed Barış Sungur instead of Oğuz Aydın.
FATE CROSSED HIS PATH WITH FENERBAHÇE AGAIN
In 2021, after this development, President Aktaş transferred Oğuz Aydın to Alanyaspor for less than the amount offered by Rizespor because he believed in the project. This transfer earned Bucaspor 2 million TL plus VAT. The agreement also included a 15% sell-on clause.
EUROPEAN CLUBS ARE AFTER HIM!
At the start of this season, Fenerbahçe snatched Oğuz Aydın from Galatasaray and added him to their squad. The Yellow-Navy Blues paid Alanyaspor a transfer fee of 6 million euros. The 24-year-old winger, one of the players Fenerbahçe’s coach Jose Mourinho trusts the most, has attracted interest from Dutch club Ajax, France’s Marseille, and Italy’s Roma.
HIS PERFORMANCE
Oğuz Aydın, whose current market value is 8 million euros, is under contract with Fenerbahçe until June 2028. This season, he has scored 5 goals and provided 6 assists in 19 appearances.
