Turgay Sabit Şeren (15 May 1932 – 6 July 2016) was the former goalkeeper of Galatasaray. He played at Galatasaray between 1947 and 1966 and was capped 52 times for Turkey,[3] including two matches at the 1954 FIFA World Cup.[4] His heroic saves against West Germany in 1951 in Berlin was what he is still remembered for. Turkey had won 2–1. Because of that unforgettable day, he is nicknamed as "Berlin Panteri" (Panther of Berlin). He also coached Galatasaray.[5] Şeren was awarded a testimonial match by the club in 1967 in Istanbul, inviting players like Ion Pârcălab, Lev Yashin and Ion Nunweiller.[6][7]

After his retirement, Şeren became a football columnist and a television commentator.

Şeren died at age 84 on 6 July 2016. He was interred at Zincirlikuyu Cemetery following a memorial service held at the Türk Telekom Arena and the religious funeral service at Teşvikiye Mosque on 9 July 2016. He was survived by his son Emre Şeren[8]
