Deniz Yılmaz (born 26 February 1988) is an Azerbaijani professional footballer who plays as a striker for Süper Lig club Bursaspor.

Club career

He began his career with Bayern Munich, and made his debut for the reserve team in August 2005, as a substitute for Daniel Sikorski in a 0–0 draw with VfR Aalen. From the 2007–08 season, Yılmaz established himself as a regular in Bayern's reserve team, and was named in the first-team squad for the 2008–09 Champions League. He was named on the subs bench for the first time in a Bundesliga game against VfL Wolfsburg in October 2008. This proved to be his last involvement with Bayern's team, however, despite finishing as the top scorer for the second string in 2009–10, with thirteen goals. He was joint top scorer the following year, along with Boy Deul and Steffen Wohlfarth, but each player only managed six goals and Bayern II were relegated from the 3. Liga in last place.[1]

In July 2011, Yılmaz joined 1. FSV Mainz 05, and made his Bundesliga debut six months later, in a 3–2 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. He made one more appearance for Mainz in the 2011–12 season, and joined 2. Bundesliga side SC Paderborn 07 on loan for the 2012–13 season.[2]

International career

Yılmaz was born in Germany to parents of Turkish and Azerbaijani descent. Yılmaz won around 50 caps for Turkey at youth level all categories comprised, including 8 for the Turkey U21. In 2016, after years of waiting for a senior Turkish call-up, Yılmaz switched to the Azerbaijan national football team.[3] Yılmaz made his debut for Azerbaijan in a 4-0 2018 World Cup qualification loss to Northern Ireland on 11 November 2016.[4]
