Aykut Kocaman (born on May 5, 1965 in Geyve, Sakarya, Turkey) is a former Turkish footballer in the striker position and current manager of Fenerbahçe. He is the first person in the club's history to have won the Süper Lig in his playing and managerial career. His name Aykut is now associated with being given to children that are loved by their parents. Before he made his debut 1980 with the amateur club Kabataş Altınmızrak in Istanbul, Kocaman performed gymnastics at the club Eczacıbaşı, winning 40 medals and reaching second place at the national level. 1984, he moved to Sakaryaspor in Adapazarı, Sakarya and turned professional. Then in 1988, Kocaman signed a contract with Fenerbahçe, where he played and contributed much to success of his club until he was transferred to İstanbulspor in 1996.

He was actually fired from Fenerbahçe despite his championship winning goal in the last game of the season against Trabzonspor. His gentle words and his regret for the beaten rival team apparently angered the club president Ali Şen. Kocaman played four seasons for İstanbulspor and, retired in 2000 as active player. Some say he played his last years to pass the 200 goal barrier. He was famous for a special move, where he would ease a high-pass on his chest and rocket the ball to the goal. In his playing years some fans named this move "Aykut" after him.

Recently, his name was given to a street in Adapazarı, where he was born and grown, in accordance with a local municipality project.
