Ege Tıknaz is a Turkish centre midfielder, born on 17 August 2004 (age 21), and currently with SC Braga. At a commanding 6ft 4in (1.93m), he brings obvious size to the middle of the pitch, though his profile is still that of a developing player rather than a finished article.
His most productive league spell so far came at Rio Ave in 2024-25, when he scored four goals in 28 appearances. That season gave him a clearer senior platform and helped put a more substantial shape on a career still in its early stages.
At Braga in 2026-27, Tıknaz has made one Liga Portugal appearance, along with four in Conference League qualifying and four in the Europa League, where he has scored once. Across all competitions for Braga, he has nine appearances and one goal.
His market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt. For now, his career is that of a tall Turkish midfielder building experience in Portugal, with Rio Ave providing the first proper league output and Braga the current step up.
