Talk:Arda Turan

Transfer rumours
Stop adding transfer rumours. They look like the sort of thing you get off the forums because I can't even find blogs that mention him moving to Real or Liverpool Spiderone (talk) 15:58, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

POSITION
he doesnt play attacking midfielder but right wing and left wing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.168.199.117 (talk) 13:38, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Current Club
He is currently playing for Atlético Madrid in the La Liga. But it is written Galatasaray in the Turkish League. This is a major fault. Somebody, please correct it ASAP. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.160.119.42 (talk) 10:05, 21 May 2014 (UTC)


 * ✅, when season ends always disruptive edits from people adding recording to rumours. To bad but i will keep a look at this page. QED 237   (talk)  10:23, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 6 July 2015
"The contract will run for five seasons, but Arda Turan will only be able to play for the Catalans until January 2016, after the transfer ban has been lifted."

He won't be able to play for them until January 2016 but can afterwards rather than the other way around like the text says at the moment.

Info box - club years
I changed Turan's info box in regards to his club years, and it has been changed back. It currently reads "2015-" by Barcelona. It should read "2016-" because, while he has a contract with them as an employee, 'he is not a registered player' for Barcelona, and will not be until 2016. He is not eligible to represent the club in any FIFA-sanctioned competition, which is what the info box documents (even more specifically, domestic league play). I do not want to get into an edit war, so I am not changing it again until we get some more input. Thoughts? Slow Graffiti (talk) 21:06, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * you are right they are banned from registered any players until 2016 so 2016 is the correct one Adnan (talk) 23:20, 7 July 2015 (UTC).
 * The right is 2015, because he signed in 2015. The question to be registered in 2016 does not change the fact that he was player since 2015. PhilStar01 (talk) 8 July 2015 (UTC).
 * He is not a player until 2016, which is my point of contention. You are not a player until you register.  He is not a player for Barcelona yet, being ineligible to play in 2015 for FC Barcelona.  Years listed in the infobox are years as a potential player for the listed club.  That does not apply to Turan and Barcelona for the year 2015. Slow Graffiti (talk) 04:37, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Real height 176 cm
In this clip, at the end, he is being measured live at 176 cm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHjYYAjW3wc

And if you observe the pics, it's obvious that he is a little shorter than Aleix Vidal (178 cm) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trucoplus (talk • contribs) 13:37, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

Change of the picture
After the sudden separation from the Turkish football team, I do think it may better to replace his picture, so I am changing it. Feel free to revert and comment.-- ❣Paseyn msg 15:29, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
 * A picture in the Barcelona jersey would be appropriate. — Za  wl  09:41, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

Not the first Turkish player to win Spanish league
At least 2 other Turkish players did it before: Nuri Sahin and Hamit Altintop with Real Madrid in the 2011-2012 season. Dukray (talk) 00:38, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
