Ruan is a 31-year-old full-back at Göztepe, rated 15.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 336th of 405 on scout potential in the 1. Lig. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (3.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.95 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 67th of 67 of the 67 full-backs in the 1. Lig, on 1 clean sheet and 3.947 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 16, 55th of 67 of the 67 full-backs in the 1. Lig. At 31 Ruan is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 2 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 3.7% 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 15.9, Ruan carries the 55th-highest potential of the full-backs in the 1. Lig of 67 — though on just 2 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.95 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
