Player career

society

As the son of an aristocratic family, Minkari attended the renowned Galatasaray High School and began playing for the Galatasaray Istanbul football club from the summer of 1932 . This association was founded two decades earlier by high school students and still had a permanent affiliation with the association. After he had been active for three seasons for the red and yellow, there was a heated controversy within the team.

One of the players who left Galatasaray and switched to Güneş was Minkari. From the summer of 1938 they played in the İstanbul Futbol Ligi (German: Istanbul Football League ), in the same league as Galatasaray. In the season 1937/38 he reached the league championship with this team.

Minkari left the club in 1938 and played the next six seasons in the French league with Racing Strasbourg .

In the 1943/44 season he played for Fenerbahçe Istanbul and returned to Galatasaray after two years. Here he played until the summer of 1946 and then ended his active football career.
