Club career


On 19 August 2021, Tufan left Turkey for the first time in his career when he joined newly promoted Premier League club Watford on a season-long loan deal with the option to buy. On 2 February 2022, the loan was terminated early with Tufan returning to Turkey having only made nine appearances in all competitions. Following his return, Watford's Academy Manager, Omer Riza, talked about Tufan's struggle to adapt to the pace of the Premier League.
On 1 July 2022, Tufan signed for Championship club Hull City for an undisclosed fee. Tufan signed a three-year deal with the club holding the option for a further year. He made his debut for the Tigers on 30 July 2022 in the home match against Bristol City and scored a penalty to level the score. Tufan scored his first hat-trick for Hull in their 4–2 home victory over Sheffield Wednesday on 12 August 2023.
In September 2023, Tufan was named Hull City's Player of the Month for August.
On 27 June 2024, Tufan moved to Trabzonspor for an undisclosed fee.




International career


Tufan played for the Turkey national under-19 team, which won the silver medal at the 2013 Mediterranean Games in Mersin, Turkey. He also represented his country at the 2013 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.
On 25 May 2014, Tufan played his first national match for Turkey against Ireland in Dublin. On 3 September 2014, Tufan scored his first goal, a long range shot against Denmark in a friendly game at 90th minute. Turkey won the game 2–1. In a post-match interview about the game he replied " I had the ball in front of me and right when I was about to kick it, I heard Arda Turan backing me to shoot. I initially had the scare of hitting my shot off-range, on such an important moment; but I kept my composure and hit the ball right after. I want to thank Fatih Terim for giving me this chance, I think I've done the best I could today."
