Bristol City striker Sinclair Armstrong has transferred to Turkish club Goztepe for an undisclosed fee.

Transfer details confirmed Forward Sinclair Armstrong has left Championship side Bristol City to join Turkish outfit Goztepe, with the transfer fee remaining undisclosed. The 22-year-old striker arrived at Ashton Gate from Queens Park Rangers during the summer of 2024. For Bristol City, he featured in 83 matches, including 45 appearances last season, finding the net seven times. Armstrong has now committed to a four-year deal at Gursel Aksel Stadium, with a possible extra 12-month extension included. ## Club farewell message Bristol City’s sporting director James Ellis expressed well wishes to Armstrong as he embarks on the next chapter of his career. The club conveyed their support through a statement that read: 'Everyone at Bristol City wishes Sinclair and everyone connected with him the best on the next stage of his football career.' They also mentioned they would monitor his progress from afar and expressed gratitude for his contributions while wearing the City shirt. ## International background Armstrong represents the Republic of Ireland at international level and has earned one cap so far. His solitary appearance for the national team came against the Netherlands in 2024. The move to Goztepe marks a new professional challenge following his solitary senior international outing. ## Goztepe’s recent form Goztepe concluded last season in sixth place in the Turkish Super Lig, narrowly missing out on European qualification by one position. The club is under the ownership of Sport Republic, which also holds an 80% stake in Bristol City’s Championship rivals Southampton.
