Martin Turk (born 21 August 2003) is a Slovenian professional footballer who plays for Italian Serie C Group B club Reggiana, on loan from Parma, as a goalkeeper.[2]

Club career[]

Turk played youth football with Jadran Dekani and Koper in his native Slovenia, before joining Italian side Parma at the age of 15 in 2019.[3][4][5] He made his professional debut for Parma in Serie B on 22 February 2022, in a goalless draw against title contenders Pisa.[6][7][8]

On 19 July 2022, Turk went on a season-long loan to Serie C side Reggiana.[9][10]

International career[]

Turk played for various Slovenian national youth teams, such as the under-16, under-17 and under-21 teams.[11] With the under-16 team, he was instrumental in keeping a clean sheet during a draw against Italy in 2019, saving a penalty from Sebastiano Esposito.[3][4]

He was first called to the Slovenian senior team in June 2021, for a friendly game against Gibraltar, just after he played his first game with the under-21s.[3][12]

During the following months, he became a regular starter with the U21 during the Euro 2023 qualifiers, playing games such as a 2–2 draw against England[13] and a 3–0 win against Albania.[14]
