About Ridvan

Born and raised in France, I graduated from the Gérard de Nerval International Business School in 2010. Shortly after, I moved to Turkey to begin my professional journey. After several enriching experiences, I joined Air France KLM as an e-marketing specialist, where I managed campaigns in the Middle East and Africa markets for three years.

During this period, I also developed my professional network in the sports and media sectors, which led me to my first role as a radio presenter at Lig Radyo in 2010. This opportunity marked the beginning of my career in sports media, with experiences at NTV Spor Radyo and Fotomaç as a columnist and commentator. In 2014, I hosted a television show for Kanal 7/24, focusing on the FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Parallel to my media activities, I worked as a football scout for two international sports management companies between 2008 and 2018, thereby gaining solid expertise in talent evaluation and team dynamics. My lifelong passion for football led me to accept an offer from Çaykur Rizespor in the summer of 2018, where I held the position of translator until 2021. After a year at Gaziantep FK and an international experience in Belgium as general coordinator, I continued to broaden my skills.

In the summer of 2023, I returned to Çaykur Rizespor to resume my role as translator before joining Başakşehir FK in 2025.
