Abdullah Halman

Abdullah Halman — Biography

Abdullah Halman is a Turkish footballer born on August 15, 1987, in Şanlıurfa, who plays as a striker. He began playing football in Gaziantepspor's youth academy and signed his first professional contract in 2005, joining the first-team squad, though he spent the first half of that season with the reserve team. He was then loaned to GASKİ, making his official debut in a Third League match against Karamanspor on February 5, 2006.

After a 2006-07 loan spell at Mezitlispor, Halman moved to Mersin İdman Yurdu outright in 2007-08 and drew attention by scoring 10 goals in 25 league matches in his debut season there. That form earned him a move to Süper Lig side Eskişehirspor in 2008-09, but after struggling to settle in he returned to Mersin İdman Yurdu on loan mid-season and helped the club finish second in the Second League to earn promotion to the First League.

He spent 2009-10 on loan at his hometown club Şanlıurfaspor, then joined First League side Gaziantep Büyükşehir Belediyespor in 2010-11 before transferring to Süper Lig club Mersin İdman Yurdu ahead of 2012-13. In later years he played for 1461 Trabzon and Tarsus İdman Yurdu before joining Sivas Belediyespor, re-signing with the club in 2020 and moving on to Gaziantep Ankas Spor in 2022.
