About Emre Mor

Emre Mor was born and grew up in Brønshøj, Copenhagen, Denmark. His mother is of Turkish background from North Macedonia. His father is Turkish. Emre has both Danish and Turkish citizenship.

Emre's Club Journey

Starting His Career

When Emre was 16, in December 2013, he had a trial with Saint-Étienne. However, he did not get a contract with the team.

Mor played for Lyngby's U17 and U19 youth teams. He left the club in January 2015. The club mentioned that his talent could not be fully developed there. Later, it was reported that he faced some challenges with his behavior during that time.

Playing for FC Nordsjælland

On January 31, 2015, Emre Mor signed a contract with FC Nordsjælland. Many other clubs wanted him, but he chose Nordsjælland. He was first meant to play for their U19 team.

Mor made his first official appearance for FCN on November 28, 2015. He came into the game as a substitute in the 84th minute. This was during a Danish Superliga match against Randers FC. In the very next league game, Mor started for the team against Brøndby IF. His good performance earned him a new contract. He was promoted to the first team squad starting in January 2016.

Time at Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund announced they had signed Emre Mor on June 7, 2016. He signed a five-year contract with the German club.

During his time there, it was reported that Dortmund had some concerns about his behavior. They also wanted him to fit in better with the team. He played in 12 games in the Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League during the 2016–17 season. He usually came on as a substitute.

Moving to Celta Vigo

On August 29, 2017, Mor joined Spanish club Celta Vigo. The transfer cost €13 million. This made him the second most expensive player Celta had ever signed.

He started only one league game for the club until mid-December. He played only 384 minutes in total. In April 2018, Mor was late for training. This happened after he had been left out of the team for two games. His coach, Unzué, said Mor needed to improve his attitude. Mor later apologized on Twitter, saying he would try his best to get back into the team.

After this, Mor trained by himself for a while. Less than a month later, in May 2018, he was sent home early from training again. He did not play for the rest of that season.

The 2018-19 season started similarly. Mor played only 38 minutes in the first eight league games. In January 2019, he was again left out of training due to his behavior. He was not part of the team for over a month. Celta gave him another chance in late February 2019, and he returned to team training.

Loan to Galatasaray

On July 31, 2019, Galatasaray announced that Mor had joined them. He came on a loan deal for the whole season.

Loan to Olympiacos

On January 31, 2020, Olympiacos confirmed they had signed Mor. He joined them on loan from Celta Vigo for the rest of the 2019–20 season.

Loan to Fatih Karagümrük

On August 26, 2021, Mor returned to Turkey. He joined Süper Lig team Fatih Karagümrük on a season-long loan. On March 18, 2022, Mor scored his first hat-trick in a game against Kayserispor.

Joining Fenerbahçe

On July 2, 2022, Emre Mor joined Fenerbahçe permanently. He signed a three-year contract with the club.

Return to Fatih Karagümrük (loan)

On January 1, 2024, Fenerbahçe announced that Mor had signed a loan contract with his former club Fatih Karagümrük. This was for the second half of the 2023-24 Süper Lig season. The deal did not include an option for Fatih Karagümrük to buy him permanently.

Playing for His Country

Mor was called up to the Turkey U21 team. He played in a qualification match for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification.

Mor made his first senior appearance for Turkey in May 2016. This was in a game against Montenegro. He was chosen for the Turkey senior team's squad for UEFA Euro 2016. This made him one of the youngest players in the tournament. He came on as a substitute in Turkey's first Euro 2016 game against Croatia. He also started in Turkey's last match of the 2016 European Championship. In that game against the Czech Republic, he helped set up the first goal for Burak Yılmaz.
