Berkant Göktan (born 12 December 1980 in Munich) is a Turkish-German former footballer. He was considered one of the hottest prospects in Germany during the late 1990s.[1]
Club career
Giovanni Trapattoni called him up to train with Bayern's senior squad when he was 16 years old,[1] while Ottmar Hitzfeld granted him his professional debut at age 17. He replaced Hasan Salihamidžić in a 1998–99 UEFA Champions League game against Manchester United with 30 minutes left when the score was 2–1 for Manchester. Bayern ended up tying the game.[1]
In January 1999, he negotiated a loan deal to Borussia Mönchengladbach.[1]
In September 2006, Göktan joined TSV 1860 München in the Bundesliga and became a star of the team. On 21 October 2008, he was released from his contract after being positively tested for Cocaine consumption.[2]
On 21 January 2010, he has signed a one-year contract with Thai Premier League champions Muangthong United who were hoping to qualify for their first ever AFC Champions League.[3] Göktan was the club's first signing under new coach René Desaeyere.[4][5] He left the club without featuring in a single match because of fitness.
