Ayhan Akman

Ayhan Akman strikes me as the embodiment of club loyalty. A combative midfielder who became a Galatasaray legend, he returned to the same club as assistant manager, choosing to give back where he made his name. He carries a blemish too, a six-month doping ban, yet the fact that he came home to mentor the next generation rather than fade away says a lot about his character. At 173 centimeters he was never imposing, but you can picture the tireless engine he must have been in midfield. I cannot help but root for a man who lives for his club.
