Ruan is a 31-year-old full-back at Sakaryaspor, rated 17.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 623rd of 723 in the Turkey tier 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.06 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ruan.
Judged on this season alone, Ruan graded 3 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 129th of 129 of the 129 full-backs in the Turkey tier 1, on 1 clean sheet and 1.059 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 7 → 3). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 109th of 129 of the 129 full-backs in the Turkey tier 1. At 31 Ruan is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
1.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 13 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (18th 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.
With a Rating of 17.3, Ruan carries the 109th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Turkey tier 1 of 129 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.06 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~11), then tapers with age. At 31, Ruan sits on 5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ruan's projected Rating — 17.3 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.
