Clean sheets

1.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 38 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 88.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

Defensive numbers. Modest 1.87 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 35.5 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.87 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~8), then tapers with age. At 28, Özcan sits on 4.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Özcan's projected Rating — 35.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
