Career

He made his debut on the professional league level in the 2. Bundesliga for SV Wehen Wiesbaden on 18 May 2008 when he came on as a substitute in the 86th minute in a game against SC Freiburg.[4] On 25 June 2010, Öztürk left SV Wehen Wiesbaden and signed in the land of his forefathers Turkey with Konyaspor.[5] After two months with Konyaspor,[6] he returned to Germany and played for Eintracht Wetzlar.[7] On 2 February 2011, Öztürk signed with 3. Liga club FC Carl Zeiss Jena[8] and scored in his first game his debut goal in 3–0 home victory against SV Sandhausen,[9] the club he joined only a few months later.

After being released by Sivasspor in summer 2014, Öztürk was without a club for roughly half a year. After two weeks being on trial, on 26 January 2015, he was given a contract by then last placed 3. Liga side Jahn Regensburg. He signed for the remainder of the season with an extension clause in case of Regensburg staying in the league.[10] After Regensburg was relegated, he joined FSV Zwickau.[11]
