Ersin Destanoğlu (born 1 January 2001) is a Turkish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for UAE Pro League club Al Jazira.

Club career

Destanoğlu played 18 games at 2018–19 season of TFF U-19 Elite Development League.[3] Following the departure of Loris Karius, Destanoğlu became the first choice goalkeeper in June 2020.[4][5] On 13 June 2020, Destanoğlu made his Süper Lig debut at week 27 encounter of 2019–20 season, which ended 2–1 in favour of Antalyaspor.[6]

Destanoğlu saved 6 shots on target,[7] including one from a penalty shot from Chuba Akpom,[8] ended 3–1 for home side PAOK at second qualifying round of 2020–21 Champions League qualifying stage, on 25 August 2020.[9]

He was suspended following a collusion outside the box with opponent's striker Muhammet Demir, on Süper Lig encounter against Gaziantep on 6 November 2020, being the first Beşiktaş goalkeeper shown a red card since Rüştü Reçber's card given in 2007.[10]

On 4 April 2021, Destanoğlu saved a penalty taken Swedish forward Isaac Thelin in a game against Kasımpaşa, held at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium, ended 1–0 for Kasımpaşa.[11] Because of this, Destanoğlu became the first goalkeeper to save a penalty in a Süper Lig game since 2015–16 when Tolga Zengin saved one.[12]

On 1 October 2022, Destanoğlu has signed a new four-year contract with Beşiktaş, keeping him at the club until 2026[13]
