Halil İbrahim Dervişoğlu (born 8 December 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for Süper Lig club Galatasaray, on loan from Premier League club Brentford. Dervişoğlu began his career in his native Netherlands with Sparta Rotterdam and transferred to Brentford in 2020. Born in the Netherlands, he represents the Turkey national team.

Club career[]

Sparta Rotterdam[]

Dervişoğlu joined the Sparta Rotterdam academy at the age of 10 and broke into the club's reserve team early in the 2017–18 Tweede Divisie season.[1][2] 21 goals in 26 appearances saw him sign a contract extension in May 2018 and he made his maiden first team appearances during the club's unsuccessful Eredivisie relegation playoff campaign.[1][3] Dervişoğlu was a regular in the first team squad during the 2018–19 Eerste Divisie season and he helped the club to promotion back to the Eredivisie through the end-of-season playoffs.[1][4]

In August 2019, Dervişoğlu signed a pre-contract to depart Het Kasteel on 1 January 2020.[5] He made 19 appearances and scored five goals during the first half of the 2019–20 season and departed the club having made 58 appearances and scored 16 goals while a member of the first team squad.[1]

Brentford[]

On 9 August 2019, Dervişoğlu signed a pre-contract to join English Championship club Brentford on 1 January 2020,[5] for a reported €3 million fee.[6] He signed a 4+1⁄2-year contract and was unveiled as a Brentford player on 3 January 2020.[7] Down the pecking order for the attacking positions,[8] Dervişoğlu made 7 appearances during the remainder of the 2019–20 season,[9] which ended with defeat in the 2020 Championship play-off Final.[10]

After making just one EFL Cup substitute appearance during the first month of the 2020–21 season and well behind Marcus Forss and new signing Ivan Toney in the centre forward pecking order,[11] Dervişoğlu departed on loan for the remainder of the campaign on 6 October 2020.[12] He was recalled on the first day of the mid-season transfer window and scored his first goal for the club on his first appearance back,[13] with the opener in a 2–1 FA Cup third round win over Middlesbrough on 9 January 2021.[11] It proved to be Dervişoğlu's only appearance before his departure on loan for the remainder of the 2020–21 season two weeks later.[14] In his absence, Brentford won promotion to the Premier League after victory in the 2021 Championship play-off Final.[15]

Despite being named in each of head coach Thomas Frank's first four matchday squads of the 2021–22 season, Dervişoğlu made just one appearance, with a start in a 3–1 EFL Cup second round win over Forest Green Rovers.[16] On 1 September 2021, for reasons of it being a "logical progression" for Dervişoğlu "to continue to play and develop", he departed on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season.[17]

FC Twente (loan)[]

On 6 October 2020, Dervişoğlu joined Eredivisie club FC Twente on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season.[12] After making 10 appearances without scoring,[1] his loan was terminated on 1 January 2021.[13]

Galatasaray (loans)[]

On 25 January 2021, Dervişoğlu joined Turkish Süper Lig club Galatasaray on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season.[14] After a slow start to his spell due to testing positive for COVID-19,[18] Dervişoğlu broke from his substitute role into the starting lineup late in the season, scoring three goals in the final four matches,[16] though the club ultimately missed out on the Süper Lig title by one goal.[19] He finished his spell with 12 appearances and three goals.[19] On 1 September 2021, Dervişoğlu returned to the Türk Telekom Stadium on loan until the end of the 2021–22 season.[20]

International career[]

Of Turkish descent, Dervişoğlu was eligible to represent the Netherlands or Turkey at international level.[7] Capped by Turkey at U19 and U21 level,[21] Dervişoğlu was named in Turkey's Euro 2020 squad and made his senior international debut in a pre-tournament friendly versus Azerbaijan on 27 May 2021.[21][22] He started the match and scored the opening goal in the 2–1 victory.[21] Dervişoğlu made two substitute appearances at Euro 2020, prior to Turkey's group stage exit.[23]
