Leicester City (loan)

On 20 September 2020, Ünder signed for Premier League club Leicester City on a season-long loan, with the option of a permanent transfer.[9] He made his debut in a 3–0 defeat to West Ham United, coming on as a substitute.[10] On 25 October, he made his first goal contribution for Leicester when he assisted Jamie Vardy's winning goal in a 1–0 away win over Arsenal, which ended Leicester's 47 year wait for a victory away at Arsenal.[11] On 10 December, Ünder scored his first Leicester goal in a 2–0 home win over AEK Athens in the UEFA Europa League.[12]

Marseille

On 4 July 2021, he signed on loan for Ligue 1 club Marseille, with an option to be bought[13] of €9 million.[14]

International career

In November 2016 Ünder received his first call-up to the senior Turkey squad for the match against Kosovo.[16] He scored his first international goal in his second cap for his country in a friendly victory against Moldova in March 2017.

Controversy

Following the Afrin offensive in Northern Syria, which was carried out by the Turkish Armed Forces in January 2018, on 11 February, Ünder performed a military salute as a goal celebration after netting in Roma's 5–2 home win over Benevento in Serie A.[17][18] In October 2019, following the Turkish offensive into north-eastern Syria, Ünder posted a picture of the aforementioned celebration on Twitter;[19] his controversial post drew criticism on social media from Roma fans.[20][21]
