Ege Tıknaz (born 17 August 2004, age 22) is a Turkish centre midfielder with SC Braga. At 6ft 4in (1.93m), he brings obvious size to the middle of the pitch, though his profile is more that of a developing senior professional than a finished article.
His most productive league spell so far came at Rio Ave in 2024-2025, when he scored four goals in 28 appearances. That season gave him a clearer foothold in Portuguese football and remains the strongest marker in his senior record.
He is now with Braga, where he has made four Liga Portugal appearances in 2026-2027. His market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Tıknaz’s career is still taking shape: a Turkish midfielder, tested at Rio Ave, now trying to build himself into a more regular presence at Braga.
