The 6ft 3 defender, who played an integral part in the Sierra Leone African Cup of Nations in Cameroon, has been handed a new adventure in the Turkish Süper Lig.
Last season, the Center-back spent the entire 2021–22 season on loan with fellow Süper Lig side Gaziantep – where he made 29 topflight appearances scoring two goals.
On Friday, former club Fenerbahce confirmed Caulker’s release on mutual consent ahead of joining his fourth Turkish professional outfit.
Fatih Karagümrük managed by Italian legend Andrea Pirlo, they are currently 13th in the standing after their opening three league matches.
The club is based in the Karagümrük neighbourhood of the Fatih district in İstanbul. They were promoted from the TFF First League in the 2019–2020 season.
Caulker started his football career as a 16 old lad at Tottenham with the youth side in 2007.
