Kasımpaşa Continues With Comparisonator for the Second Year in a Row Under the Leadership of Ceyhun Kazancı
We are proud to announce that Kasımpaşa Spor Kulübü continues its partnership with Comparisonator for the second consecutive year.
This renewal represents much more than the continuation of a technology partnership. It reflects a clear commitment to contextual data, AI-powered football intelligence and modern decision-making supported by human-language insights through CompaGPT.
A Visionary Leader: Ceyhun Kazancı
This continued collaboration aligns strongly with the leadership vision of Ceyhun Kazancı, one of the most forward-thinking executives in Turkish football.
Kazancı has always understood that modern football requires more than raw numbers. It requires context, interpretation and the ability to transform complex datasets into clear, actionable football decisions.
This is exactly where Comparisonator and CompaGPT create value.
Why Comparisonator?
Through Comparisonator, Kasımpaşa continues to benefit from:
- Contextual Data: Evaluating player performance within role, league and tactical environment
- CompaGPT Reports: Turning 371 football metrics into clear, readable human-language insights
- League Comparisons & Player Monitoring: Understanding performance ceilings, transfer risk and player adaptability
- AI-Powered Decision Support: Helping executives and recruitment teams make faster, smarter and more evidence-driven decisions
This is where modern scouting and recruitment are heading, and Kasımpaşa continues to stay ahead of the curve.
Ceyhun Kazancı: “I’ve found Comparisonator to be an incredibly useful and user-friendly tool. It’s particularly great for finding players similar to ones you already value. The platform simplifies player comparisons, living up to its name and exceeding expectations. I’m thoroughly impressed with its capabilities and strongly recommend it to anyone looking for an edge in player analysis and recruitment.
I used Comparisonator for a long time and I believe that it is very useful and customer friendly especially it’s very useful to find some similar players that you need. For example, we had Abubakar as number nine and it was very useful for us to find the similar players and also of course values since you can understand from the name of the software, comparing the players is very easy to use. So we’re very happy with the software so I strongly recommend you to use that software.”
A Leader Built for the Modern Era
Before his leadership roles in football clubs, Mr. Kazancı built strong experience at the intersection of business, technology and global sports operations.
He served as General Manager of Passolig, Turkey’s national digital ticketing system and held director-level roles at IMG Doğuş, specializing in venue and sports business management.
His management approach is shaped by innovation, data fluency and sustainable planning, all of which are essential for modern football organizations.
Beşiktaş & TFF Leadership Legacy
At Beşiktaş JK between 2021 and 2023, Kazancı served as both CEO and Sporting Director, where he focused on budget discipline, analytical thinking, tactical and physical intensity and modern recruitment methodologies.
He also served as Vice President at the Turkish Football Federation, leading National Teams and FIFA/UEFA Relations, giving him a broad perspective on global football development.
Why This Renewal Matters?
This second-year partnership is not only about software.
It represents a shared football philosophy:
- Evidence over guesswork
- Context over raw numbers
- AI-enhanced decision-making over traditional processes
With CompaGPT translating complex football data into human language and Comparisonator providing one of the clearest contextual analytics systems in world football, Kasımpaşa is continuing to invest in a future-proof football model.
We are proud to support Kasımpaşa Spor Kulübü and Ceyhun Kazancı for the second year in a row.
