Biography
Nuri Kazım Şahin (born 5 September 1988) is a German and Turkish professional football manager and former player who played as a midfielder. He is currently the head coach of Süper Lig club Başakşehir.
He began his playing career at Dortmund, spending six years there – including a year-long loan at Feyenoord – and winning the Bundesliga in 2011 before signing for Real Madrid in 2011 for €10 million. In August 2012, Şahin agreed to a one-year loan deal with Liverpool, which was terminated in January 2013 to allow him to return to Dortmund on an 18-month loan. This was then made permanent, and he stayed at Dortmund until his transfer to Werder Bremen in August 2018. He retired from football in 2021, after one season at Antalyaspor in the Süper Lig.
Born in Germany, Şahin represented Turkey at international level and did so since the under-16 level. He made his senior international debut in 2005 and earned 52 caps over a 12-year career, being selected for UEFA Euro 2016.
After retiring as a player, Şahin began managing Antalyaspor in 2021, later leading Dortmund but getting sacked on 22 January 2025.
