In July 2018, Kadıoğlu signed for Turkish Süper Lig club Fenerbahçe[3] under Phillip Cocu, famous Dutch football manager of the club at the time. In his first season, he played mostly in Fenerbahçe U21 team and made his debut for the senior squad on 20 December 2018, coming off the bench in a Turkish Cup match against Giresunspor.[4] He also played 11 matches with Fenerbahçe U21 in U21 Ligi.
The following season he started to find more time in the senior squad and scored his first goal for Fenerbahçe on 19 August 2019 against Gaziantep, netting the final goal in a 5–0 victory.[5]
2020–2022: Increased playing time
In his third season, after the signing of Erol Bulut, the new football manager for the club, he started to find more time in first team than in his first two seasons and became one of the key players who took more responsibility on the field.
In the subsequent year, with changes in management, first under Vitor Pereira and then İsmail Kartal, he solidified his starter role. Despite his age, he consistently earned and played full 90-minute matches, showcasing his progress.
On 17 March 2022 Fenerbahçe announced that they had signed a four-year contract with Ferdi Kadıoğlu until June 2026.[6]
2022–2024: Key player
In his fifth season, he emerged as a versatile player for Fenerbahçe and the Turkey national football team, occupying multiple positions in the first eleven, mainly at both full-back positions. He finished the season with 4 goals and 5 assists across all competitions, amassing a total of 4175 minutes of playtime.
In his sixth season, he made a very strong start with new coach and team's local legend İsmail Kartal.
International career
Kadıoğlu was born in the Netherlands to a Turkish father and a Dutch Canadian mother.[7] He was therefore eligible to represent Turkey, the Netherlands and Canada internationally.[8] He was a youth international for the Netherlands.[9]
In March 2021, Kadıoğlu was named to the Netherlands U-21 squad for that year's UEFA European Under-21 Championship.[10] Later that year on 12 November 2021, Turkey coach Stefan Kuntz revealed that he was expecting Kadıoğlu to make his decision on his international future in March 2022.[11]
On 3 January 2022 his club Fenerbahçe announced that he had chosen to represent the Turkey national football team.[12][13] He debuted with Turkey in a 4–0 UEFA Nations League win over Faroe Islands on 4 June 2022.[14]
On 18 November 2023, Kadıoğlu scored his first goal for Turkey in a 3–2 friendly win over Germany in Berlin.[15]
On 12 June 2024, Kadıoğlu was named amongst the 26 man squad by coach Vincenzo Montella for Euro 2024, where Turkey made a surprising run until their loss in the quarterfinals against the Netherlands.
