Musim Terakhir di Liverpool, Ternyata Jurgen Klopp Tak Pernah Dipecat Klub  Selama Karirnya

How is ex-West Brom star Okay Yokuslu getting on in Turkey?

Midfielder Okay Yokuslu left West Bromwich Albion during the summer transfer window, signing for Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor.

The Turkish international had entered the final year of his contract at The Hawthorns, with West Brom receiving a fee understood to be around €1.6million (£1.3m) for the 30-year-old.

Yokuslu played for Trabzonspor between 2015-2018, before moving to Spanish La Liga side Celta Vigo. It was from there that he would join the Baggies on a short-term loan in the second half of the 2020/21 Premier League season.

He would impress sufficiently enough during that brief spell with the club, so that when he became a free agent in the summer of 2022, Albion were quick to snap him up.

Being back in his native country and returning to a club that he knows well, it’s probably fair to say most people thought that Yokuslu would hit the ground running for Trabzonspor, and he has.

As of 18 September 2024, the central midfielder has made seven appearances for the club, three of those coming in the league, whilst the other four came in the club’s qualification ties for the Europa League and the Conference League respectively.

Predominantly seen operating from both the right and left of a midfield two – a role Baggies fans will have fond memories of seeing him perform in for their club -, Yokuslu has been one of Senol Gunes’ top performers in the early weeks of the 2024/25 season, despite his side drawing all three of their opening Super Lig fixtures.
