Goal Record
There is no denying that Yilmaz is lethal in front of goal. The Turkish international has bagged 81 goals in 140 games for Galatasaray. The prolific striker scored 31 goals and 9 assists in 33 league games for Trabzonspor the season before he joined the Lions in 2012. The Lions star then went onto net eight goals in nine Champions League appearances in the 2012-13 season, playing a crucial role in guiding Galatasaray to the quarter-finals.
