Mete Adanır

Born in Limassol, Cyprus, Adanır began playing youth football for local side Doğan Türk Birliği. He moved to England in September 1979 to pursue higher education. While studying, he joined Leyton Orient F.C.'s youth side. Six months later, he signed with the senior side and began playing with the reserves. However, the club was unable to get clearance from the Cyprus football association and cancelled his registration. Still living in England, Adanır played at the Islamic Games where he was scouted by Turkish Süper Lig club Altay S.K. He joined Altay at the beginning of the 1981–82 season, and would spend four seasons with the club, three of them in the first division. He moved to second division side Konyaspor, where he would enjoy success. He scored 25 goals during the 1985-86 season and was named the Konya sportsman of the year. After impressing at Konyaspor, Adanır signed with Süper Lig side Samsunspor in July 1987, where he would make 38 league appearances before his death.
