Özcan Kızıltan — Biography

Born on July 12, 1959, in Istanbul, Özcan Kızıltan played as a footballer for Mersin İdmanyurdu, Fenerbahçe and Sakaryaspor during the 1970s and 1980s. He won the Süper Lig and the Turkish Cup with Fenerbahçe in 1982-83, the Turkish Cup with Sakaryaspor in 1987-88, and the 1. Lig title with Mersin İdmanyurdu in 1979-80.

After retiring as a player, Kızıltan moved into coaching and took charge of numerous Anatolian clubs. Appointed at Bucaspor in the 2009-10 season, he led the team to a runner-up finish and its first-ever promotion to the Süper Lig, then took over Göztepe and steered them to the 2. Lig title and promotion to the 1. Lig in 2010-11. He resigned from Göztepe during the disappointing 2011-12 season and signed an 18-month contract with Boluspor on December 27, 2011. In the years since, he has managed clubs including Nevşehirspor, Sarıyer, Eskişehirspor and Yeni Mersin İdmanyurdu, and was appointed head coach of Kırşehirspor in early 2026.
