Mustafa Tiryaki (born 2 March 1987) is an English footballer who plays as a forward for Bedfont Sports.
Tiryaki joined Maidenhead United in 2008 after playing semi-professional football in Turkey. He initially failed to find form and was sent out to Potters Bar Town on loan, scoring two goals in four games.[1][2] On his return to Maidenhead, he hit a great vein of form. His goalscoring resulted in him being named the club's Player of the Season and resulted in a trial at Cheltenham Town in the summer of 2009.[3] Tiryaki joined Havant & Waterlooville in July 2009, signing a two-year deal with the Conference South club, despite attracting interest from several Conference National sides.[4] He remained at Havant & Waterlooville until June 2011, leaving the club having failed to agree a new deal.[5] During his time at Havant & Waterlooville, Tiryaki scored 23 league goals in 75 appearances.[6][7]
He spent time on trial at Scunthorpe United in July 2011, scoring in a friendly victory against Bottesford Town,[8] but was ultimately not offered a deal.[9] He then went on trial at Tranmere Rovers twice in the summer of 2011, signing a one-year deal in early August.[10] He made his competitive Football League debut on the first day of the 2011–12 season, starting in Tranmere's 1–0 victory against Chesterfield on 6 August.[11] He scored his first professional goal for Tranmere in a 2–1 home win over Walsall on 22 October 2011.[12] Seven days later after scoring his first goal on 29 October 2011, Tiryaki scored a brace in a 4–2 defeat against Scunthorpe United.[13] In the January transfer window, Tiryaki was linked with Turkish giant Trabzonspor for a reported £100,000 bid.[14] However, the move was never materialise[citation needed].
On 1 March 2012, Tiryaki was allowed to join Conference National side Cambridge United for a one-month emergency loan.[15] He left the Abbey Stadium at the end of March 2012.
He returned to Tranmere, playing some games towards the end of the season, but was released in May.[16]
After being released by Tranmere, he moved to Turkey by signing a four-year contract for Turkish TFF First League team 1461 Trabzon in June 2012.[17]
In September 2015, Tiryaki moved to National League side Boreham Wood.[18] After this Tiryaki had a short spell in Turkey with Manisa Büyükşehir Belediyespor F.C.
In March 2017, Tiryaki moved to Wealdstone. However, due to issues with international clearance from his former team,[19] he was restricted to only friendly appearances. In late October 2017, international clearance was granted for Tiryaki, allowing him to sign a contract and play in all games for Wealdstone. On 14 November, he joined Kings Langley on dual registration.[20] On 27 March 2018, Tiryaki left Wealdstone[21] and then moved to Bedfont Sports.[22] He left in April 2019 to become a player assistant coach at Brimsdown but returned to Bedfont again on 25 December 2019.[23]
