| Ali Rıza Sergen Yalçın (Turkish pronunciation: ; born 5 November 1972), known as Sergen Yalçın, Turkish professional football manager and former player. Yalçın is the first individual in Turkish football to win the Süper Lig both as a player and a manager with Beşiktaş.
During his playing career, Yalçın was an attacking midfielder known for his vision, creativity, and ability to dictate games. He spent the majority of his club career in Turkey, most notably with Beşiktaş, where he became a fan favorite. He also represented other major Turkish clubs, including Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray, and Trabzonspor, a rare feat in Turkish football. Internationally, he earned 37 caps and scored 5 goals for the Turkey national team, participating in UEFA Euro 1996 and UEFA Euro 2000.
After retiring as a player, Yalçın transitioned into management, taking charge of several Turkish clubs before returning to Beşiktaş as head coach in 2020. In his first full season, he led the club to a historic domestic double, winning the Süper Lig and the Turkish Cup. Despite his success, he resigned in December 2021 following a series of poor results, including a winless UEFA Champions League campaign.
