Alanyaspor is a football club based in Alanya, a coastal city in Turkey’s Antalya Province. The club was founded in 1948 but spent most of its history in lower leagues. In recent years, Alanyaspor has risen steadily and earned promotion to the Süper Lig for the first time in the 2016–17 season. Since then, it has established itself as a stable top-flight team, known for competitive performances and a focus on developing talent.
The team plays its home matches at Alanya Oba Stadium, which has a capacity of around 10,000. The stadium, located near the Mediterranean coast, is modest but functional, providing a home-ground advantage through its close-knit atmosphere and enthusiastic local supporters.
Alanya is a major tourist destination, famous for its beaches, historic sites, and Mediterranean climate. Alanyaspor represents the city’s local pride, with fans passionately supporting the club as it competes against larger, more established Turkish teams. Its rise to the Süper Lig has been seen as a significant achievement for a smaller city in Turkish football.
