About the player
İsmail Köybaşı left the İskenderunspor academy system as a teenager before making his professional debut with Gaziantepspor in the 2007-08 season. Two years later, in June 2009, Beşiktaş paid €5.5 million to sign him, with Serdar Kurtuluş going the other way to Gaziantepspor as part of the deal.
He moved across Istanbul to Fenerbahçe on a free transfer in July 2016, before a spell in Spain with Granada CF. A return to Turkish football followed via Çaykur Rizespor and then Trabzonspor, where he signed on a free transfer in July 2021 and added a second Süper Lig medal in 2021-22. In August 2022 he joined Göztepe.
Internationally, Köybaşı earned 28 caps for Turkey between 2009 and 2017, making his senior debut against Ukraine in August 2009, and was part of the squad at UEFA Euro 2016. He retired from professional football in July 2026, with a farewell match against Trabzonspor held the following month.
