The journey of Uzun in football started with Regensburg, Germany. He was born to Turkish parents. His passion for football began early, and by the age of 6, he was already a part of SSV Jahn Regensburg, a local club. After he moved to various youth setups, his talents were quickly recognized.
The family of the youngster played a crucial role in his career development. Born and raised in a Turkish-German household, his parents supported his passion for football, making sure he always looked forward in his journey. His Turkish heritage has been crucial, given that the youngster had decided to represent Turkey internationally, despite interest from the German Football Association.
The youngster’s professional career began with 1. FC Nürnberg. He joined their team back in 2022, and after his arrival, his consistent performances started getting other clubs’ attention right away. His 16 goals in 32 appearances back in the 2023-24 season allowed him to get the attention of major clubs.
Back in July 2024, Can made a move to Eintracht Frankfurt for a reported fee of €10 million, pointing to his potential as a future star. Later that year, he made his Bundesliga debut and has contributed five goals and a couple of assists in the season.
The breakthrough moment came with 1. FC Nurnberg, which made him one of the league’s top talents. His season was marked by creating opportunities for his talents while also scoring crucial goals.
The most memorable moment in 2024 came with his debut season with Eintracht Frankfurt. In that season, he scored his first-ever goal against VfL Bochum. Moreover, his national team debut with Turkey in March 2024 is another major milestone.
As a Turkish-German footballer himself, growing up, Uzun admired Mesut Ozil. From his vision and playmaking abilities to the German International’s composure with finishing, the youngster have tried to emulate a lot of qualities of the star midfielder in his performances.
