Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Karakoç.

Judged on this season alone, Karakoç graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 61st of 62 of the 62 full-backs in the Süper Lig, on 2 clean sheets and 2.235 defensive actions per 90.

We hold a single season for Karakoç, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, top 36% of the 62 full-backs in the Süper Lig. At 23 Karakoç is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 9.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th 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 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.45 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.
  • Creativity. 0.45 assists per 90 — a genuine creative outlet.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 19.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 42, Karakoç carries the 22nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Süper Lig of 62 — though on just 21 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.24 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
