Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox football biography Ümit Özat (born 30 October 1976) is a Turkish professional football manager and former player.

Club career

Born in Ankara, Özat initially played for Gençlerbirliği and for Fenerbahçe as a central defender or a defensive midfielder. Later, he was converted to a full-back on the left side. He is right-footed, but still he played as left full-back. Mostly playing as a wingback and also supporting attackers, Özat was known for his unexpected long shots and rather successful crosses with his weak foot. He could also play the sweeper position when needed.

In May 2007, he signed a three-year contract with 1. FC Köln. On 29 August 2008, Özat collapsed during a Bundesliga match against Karlsruher SC. After losing consciousness for a short period and being treated on the field, he became responsive and was sent to hospital for further examination. Further testing has determined that the ex-club captain has a heart condition called myocarditis. On 14 March 2009, it became official that Özat had ended his career. His retirement was influenced by the collapse.
