Deniz Yılmaz (born 26 February 1988 in Neu-Ulm, West Germany) is a Turkish footballer who currently plays for Sanica Boru Elazığspor.[1] He was also a member of several Turkey national youth football teams.
He began his career with Bayern Munich, and made his debut for the reserve team in August 2005, as a substitute for Daniel Sikorski in a 0–0 draw with VfR Aalen. From the 2007–08 season, Yılmaz established himself as a regular in Bayern's reserve team, and was named in the first-team squad for the 2008–09 Champions League. He was named on the subs bench for the first time in a Bundesliga game against VfL Wolfsburg in October 2008. This proved to be his last involvement with Bayern's team, however, despite finishing as the top scorer for the second string in 2009–10, with thirteen goals. He was joint top scorer the following year, along with Boy Deul and Steffen Wohlfarth, but each player only managed six goals and Bayern II were relegated from the 3. Liga in last place.
In July 2011, Yılmaz joined 1. FSV Mainz 05, and made his Bundesliga debut six months later, in a 3–2 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. He made one more appearance for Mainz in the 2011–12 season, and joined 2. Bundesliga side SC Paderborn 07 on loan for the 2012–13 season.
