Therefore, I have no regrets. the only thing missing Turkey was on the list, and I've also completed now. " he said

"You will never be late but of course when I saw the atmosphere in the match, I said," I could have come before. Now, when I see the positive atmosphere here, I would like to stay here as long as possible. I would like to stay for 3 years, but of course I should also ask my wife. " he added.

The 32-year-old has played in German, England, Spain and now Turkey.
