Clean sheets

5.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume across 15 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (19th of 20) 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 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.15 goal involvements per 90, useful for a defensive midfielder.
  • Defensive volume. 5.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 34.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 14.7, Gönülaçar carries the 41st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the 1. Lig of 44, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Hatayspor finished 19th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.07 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
