Konyaspor have completed the signing of experienced right-back Ahmet Oğuz on the final day of the transfer window. The 33-year-old defender returns to the club after leaving Kocaelispor and has signed a one-year contract.
The club announced, "Our club has signed a one-year contract with experienced footballer Ahmet Oğuz." They added, "We welcome Ahmet Oğuz and wish him success in our green-white jersey." The signing ceremony took place at the Konyaspor Museum within the stadium, with Football Branch Manager Ali Camgöz in attendance.
According to a report by Ajansspor, edited by Akın Ungan, Ahmet Oğuz is beginning his second spell with Konyaspor. The player previously represented the club between 2022 and 2024. He will wear the number 2 jersey this season and aims to contribute with his experience and Süper Lig know-how.
How did Ahmet Oğuz perform last season?
Ahmet Oğuz delivered a highly active performance for Kocaelispor during the 2025-2026 campaign. The defender made 31 total appearances, playing 2,229 minutes on the pitch. During that time, he registered two assists. Alongside his defensive contributions, he received 10 yellow cards, demonstrating an aggressive playing style.
These statistics show that Oğuz offers a profile capable of contributing both defensively and offensively. His experience could be a vital balancing element, especially in a squad with younger players. His name will now appear on Konyaspor's squad page.
What is Konyaspor's current league situation?
The Konyaspor that Ahmet Oğuz joins has made a difficult start to the 2026-2027 Süper Lig season. The team sits in 18th place in the table and has yet to earn a point. Konyaspor has lost all three of its matches so far, with a recent form of LLL. They have scored three goals but conceded seven, resulting in a -4 goal difference.
Trailing leaders Galatasaray by seven points, every new signing is important for Konyaspor. The team needs to improve its position on the standings page. An experienced figure like Ahmet Oğuz is expected to bring stability to the defensive line.
Where will the new signing play in the team?
Ali Camgöz and the technical staff plan to use Ahmet Oğuz in the right-back position. His performance last season showed he can offer the team options both in defensive security and overlapping runs from the flank. The 33-year-old's physical condition and experience could prove valuable, particularly in tough away matches.
Oğuz's adaptation period should be swift as he has worn this jersey before. He understands the club culture and fan expectations well. This gives him an advantage over other new signings for settling in quickly.
When is the team's next fixture?
Konyaspor's next Süper Lig match is scheduled for 6 December 2026. The team will host Gaziantep FK at home. Gaziantep FK currently occupies 13th place in the table. This match represents Konyaspor's chance to earn its first points of the season.
Fans are eagerly anticipating this important home game, which is listed on the team's fixtures page. Whether Ahmet Oğuz will feature in this match will be evaluated by the technical team. The player is preparing to make his first official appearance in the green-white jersey under the one-year contract he signed with Konyaspor.
