Club career

Hamzaoğlu began his career in 1988 with İzmirspor. In 1995, he transferred to Galatasaray as captain and midfielder, where he won the league two times, the cup and Super Cup one time. He left the club after 4 years and later played for Siirtspor, İstanbulspor, Yozgatspor and Konyaspor, before ending his career at Beylerbeyi in 2004.

Managerial career

Hamzaoğlu began his managerial career with Konyaspor in 2004 as the club's caretaker manager, but it wasn't until 2008 that he signed a full-time contract with Malatyaspor. He left Malatyaspor the following year for Eyüpspor and managed Denizlispor a year later. In 2011, he was appointed at Akhisarspor, helping them achieve promotion to the Süper Lig by winning the club's first ever major trophy, the 2011–12 TFF First League. Hamzaoğlu also became the assistant of Fatih Terim in the Turkey national team the next year.

On 28 November 2014, he was appointed as the new manager of Galatasaray on the same day Cesare Prandelli was released from his contract. He signed a five-month contract until the end of the season. Hamzaoğlu won the league and the cup in that season, and in the following the Super Cup. His contract got terminated on 18 November 2015. Hamzaoğlu was also awarded the Turkish Manager of the Year Award for the year 2015.[1]

He then managed Bursaspor, Osmanlıspor, Antalyaspor and BB Erzurumspor. In November 2019, he became the new manager of Süper Lig club Gençlerbirliği.
