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 central defender.
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

Rated 41.5 overall — developing / rotation level. 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.

Market valueRating

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 age 23 (~10), then tapers with age. At 23, Karakoç sits on 9.6, at or near its peak. The blue line is Karakoç's projected Rating — 41.5 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.
