The Turkish delight that is Tugay has agreed a new deal to stay at the Rovers for his 8th year. A true legend - one of the greatest playmakers ever to be seen in the Premier League.
Robbie Savage might be a prick but he was spot on when he said Tugay was the best player he had ever appeared alongside - praise indeed from a product of the Man United youth team at the time of the golden generation of Scholes, Butt, Beckham & the Nevilles.
94 caps for Turkey, appearances at the World Cup and Euros, 6 Turkish league titles & 4 cups with Galatasaray. Legend. It mystifies me why none of the 'bigger' clubs took him when he left Turkey.
He will be the oldest outfield player in the Premier League at 37 years old - not bad for someone who reputedly gets through a 40 a day fag habit!
