Martin Turk

Martin Turk (born 21 August 2003) is a Slovenian professional footballer who plays for Italian Serie A club Parma as a goalkeeper.

Born in Koper, Turk played in the youth sectors of Jadran Dekani and Koper, before joining Italian side Parma in 2019, aged 15. He made his professional debut for the club on 22 February 2022, in a goalless Serie B draw against Pisa.

On 19 July 2022, Turk was loaned to Serie C side Reggiana. He made eight league appearances for Reggiana in the first half of the 2022–23 season. On 13 January 2023, Turk was re-called by Parma and subsequently loaned out to Serie A side Sampdoria for the rest of the season. He made his debut for the blucerchiati on 12 March in a 4–2 away loss against Juventus, becoming the first 2003-born goalkeeper to play in Serie A.

Turk played for various Slovenian national youth selections, such as the under-15, under-16, under-17 and under-21 teams. With the under-16 team, he was instrumental in keeping a clean sheet during a draw against Italy in 2019, saving a penalty from Sebastiano Esposito.

He was first called to the Slovenian senior team in June 2021, for a friendly game against Gibraltar, just after he played his first game with the under-21s.
