Future:

His first steps into senior career Salih made in Bucaspor, where he made his debut for the first team at the age of 17 and from the very beginning he impressed everyone watching him. One of the clubs interesting in him was Manchester City, but finally young midfielder was signed by one of the best teams in his country – Fenerbahce. In the capital of Turkey he isn’t yet a leading player, but rather an useful substitute. He played for Turkey in nearly all youth levels and now with the u-20 team he’s taking part in the World Cup that’s played in his own country. In the very first game against El Salvador he scored a goal and was one of the best players on the field.
