My Take
Nicknamed Sultan, Tekke was clearly never an ordinary striker, and his story is the kind of homecoming arc I find irresistible. Born in Trabzon, raised at Trabzonspor, and now back as their head coach, he has completed a near-perfect loop. As a player he topped the Süper Lig scoring charts in 2004-05 and made his mark at Zenit and Beşiktaş, so he knows the thrill of finding the net intimately. I'm fascinated to see how a man who lived for goals translates that instinct from the pitch to the dugout. Watching him scheme from the bench is genuinely compelling.
