Türkiye national team footballer Hakan Calhanoglu has drawn attention with his modest holiday choice, heading to his home village in Bayburt instead of spending his break in popular resort destinations such as Bodrum.
After stepping away from the intensity of professional football, Calhanoglu opted to slow down in the countryside and spend time surrounded by nature.
Images from his holiday showed the footballer fishing in the village and enjoying calm moments away from Türkiye's luxury tourism centers. The low-key scenes attracted considerable interest on social media.
Alongside his sporting career, Calhanoglu has also attracted attention for his close family life.
He married Sinem Calhanoglu in 2017, and the couple has three children named Liya, Ayaz and Asil Can. The footballer is known for maintaining strong family ties while continuing his successful career.
