He looks more alpinized version of you.

[21993]

Alpine-Med

[Satem]

I don't really see similarities tbh

[Marmara]

His name is Eljif, not a Turkish name. He might be Albanian.

Checked it out, he is indeed Albanian.

[Thracian]

Checked it out, he is indeed Albanian.

His mother language is Turkish. He is Turkish and Eljif=Elif and also his last name is Elmas which is pretty popular last name among Turks.

I was thinking the same but wikipedia says otherwise:


Elmas was born in Macedonia to a family of Turkish descent.

Elif is a female name in Turkish and it's not spelled Eljif.

[Thracian]

http://m.fotospor.com/haber-fenerbahce-eljif-elmas-icin-sok-iddia-333485

Elif is a female name in Turkish and it's not spelled Eljif.

I already read this news but I don't find any news about him he is an Albanian. I don't trust sports media by the way.

So? For example Ismet is a male name in Turkey but many women have this name. Also, most of my ancestors have weird names like him according to e-devlet. His last name is clearly Turkish.

Balkan Turks have male names as surnames, elmas as surname exists only in Turkey.

And many Albanians in Skopje speak Turkish. Kaspias would give information about this.

[Voskos]

Muslim slav.

Please check the link already posted by Itilvolga. His father's name is also Turkish (Cevdet/Djevdet).

My ancestors never used male names as surnames in both Bulgaria and Greece. They had different names.

His mother language is Turkish. This is different than speaking a language. I am not even sure he can speak Albanian.

His father's name is Cevat, not Cevdet, which corresponds to Albanian Xhevat.

[Vožd]

Dinarid + minor Med.

Stop abusing the Greek tribal name Macedonian. Macedonian and Turk is an oxymoron.

Macedonian is a Greek tribal name, that no Turk, Bulgarian or Skopjan can hijack.

Keep it to Balkan Turk, Bulgarian Turk, Albanian Turk etc.

[MustafaTekin]

He's an excellent player. With two goals from Elif Elmas Macedonia won against Slovenia a few days ago.

[contributor]

Dinaro-Alpine imo

+1

[Fedora]

You keep calling every Turk Arab, Kurd, Albanian etc
Even said that people from Kilis are Arabs, when there are 0 arabs.

Çok karışık mevzu. Arnavut olduğunu iddia ediyorlar ama kendi ağızlarından bir açıklama yok. İddia edende Arnavut basını. Makedonya'da Arnavutlar Türkleri baskı altına alarak asimile etmeye çalışıyor etnik Makedonlara karşı sayı kazanabilmek adına bu yüzden bu tarz şeyler iddia etmeleri çok şaşırtıcı değil. Ayrıca ismi Eljif değil Elif(Елиф). Türkiye'de neden böyle çevrilmiş bilmiyorum. Soyadı Türkçe. Arnavutlar isim olarak Türkçe'den geçme isimler kullansa da soyadları çoğunlukla Arnavutça olur. Ayrıca anadil seviyesinde Türkçe bilmezler. Türkçe isim ve soy isim kullanıp Türkçe anadil kullananlar Türkler, Boşnaklar ve Torbeşlerin bir kısmı. Üsküp Türk ve Boşnakları içeriyor. Üç ihtimalide düşünebiliriz yani. Kendi fikrim bir Arnavutun yasayla kabul edilmiş kendi dili varken anadil seviyesinde Türkçe bilmesi hiç mantıklı gelmiyor. Türk veya Boşnak olduğunu düşünüyorum

You are an idiot

Edit: Med with CM and Alpine influences. Dunno why I wrote Dinaro-Med.

there are no albanian turks because turks never lived in albania but macedonian turks, bulgarian turks, romanian turks existed because turks living this places in ottoman period.

you really are one of the most retarded members i’ve ever seen.

[Asten]

He looks Albanian on the eyes.

[Kyp]

If Albanian or Macedonian Turk doesn't make a difference ultimately. Both are Balkan people with the latter having small amount of Ottoman remnant DNA but not comparable to Turks from Trakya or Bulgaria.

[ixulescu]

Ottoman Turks lived only in 1 of the 10 historic Romanian provinces (Dobrogea, the northern part), and that's simply because it was under Ottoman administration.

Otherwise, Turks could not live in the Romanian provinces unless they converted to Christianity. Romanians had far more contact with Tatars than Turks, but the rule about religion applied to them as well.

[Hungarian_master]

Pontid+minor Turanid.

[Freeroostah]

Albanian

Do all Balkan turk samples have Turkic DNA or have you come across any individuals with none?

[Jana]

Albanian

He does look more Albanian than Turk to me as well, but everything indicates he's ethnically Turkish.
