Tuncay dazzles Middlesbrough fans – training video clip

Written by Alan Magor

Tuncay – Middlesbrough

One of Turkey’s most popular exports is already dazzling Middlesbrough fans, players and coaches alike with his quick feet, silky skills and killer eye for goal…

Sanli Tuncay, Middlesbrough FC’s new Bosman signing from Turkish champions Fenerbahce, has become an instant hit with Middlesbrough fans after a video clip from the club’s Bad Waltersdorf (Autria) training camp found it’s way onto YouTube. The clip shows Tuncay using some Cristaino Ronaldo style step overs to beat the defender, and following it up with a very cheeky flick past goalkeeper Ross Turnbull.

The Middlesbrough website has been inundated with Turkish hits since the strikers arrival on Teesside, with the site claiming more visitors from Turkey than from the actual Town of Middlesbrough. Five turkish TV crews and up to twenty reporters made their way to Austria to see Tuncay’s first day training with his new team-mates.

Here’s the clip:
