Club career

Turkey

Tekke was born in the small town of Köprübaşı, in the province of Trabzon. He joined Trabzonspor, the major team in the area. Tekke was still in his teens when he started to appear in the first team. In 45 matches that he played between 1994–1997, he scored 6 goals. At the beginning of the 1997–1998 season he was loaned out to Altay SK of İzmir, where he scored 8 goals in 24 matches. In a 4–5 defeat to Galatasaray, he scored a hat-trick. However a few weeks later he broke his leg and was out of the game for six months. Upon his return to Trabzonspor, Tekke played another 38 matches and scored 6 goals before he transferred to Gaziantepspor in the summer of 2000. In this period he made his first appearance for the Turkish national team.

In 2002, Tekke returned to Trabzonspor and was given the captaincy. This was the time Tekke reached the peak of his career. In the 2004–2005 season he managed to become the league's top goal scorer with 31 goals, 7 goals ahead of the second placed player and was second for the Golden Foot. In the Turkish national team he won two medals for winning cups.[clarification needed]

In July 2006, he signed for Zenit St. Petersburg. On 6 August 2006, Tekke scored on his debut for the club, as he came off the bench against Shinnik Yaroslavl and scored the only goal of the game for his team to win 1–0. Tekke scored the winning goal in the UEFA Cup group stage in a 3–2 victory over AE Larissa. He assisted the second in the 2008 UEFA Cup Final win over Rangers. On 21 October 2008, Tekke scored in the 1–1 draw with BATE Borisov in the Champions League. On 3 February 2010, Tekke signed a 3-year contract with FC Rubin Kazan.

In the five matches he played for Ankaragücü, he only scored three goals. In the summer transfer season of 2011, the newly promoted team, Orduspor, declared that they had purchased Tekke from Ankaragücü. Tekke was given the number 23 and the captaincy of the team. He then moved to Orduspor and retired soon after. He is now a sporting director.
