Scout report
Thalisson Kelven is a 28-year-old central defender at Gençlerbirliği S.K., rated 36 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 45th of 91 on scout potential in the Süper Lig. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present this season (82.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.42 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Kelven.
Judged on this season alone, Kelven graded 29 — a strong campaign that ranks top 28% of the 18 centre-backs in the Süper Lig, on 6 clean sheets and 3.416 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 33 → 29). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 36, 8th of 18 of the 18 centre-backs in the Süper Lig. At 28 Kelven is in his prime years, and a market index of 6.6 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Gençlerbirliği S.K. finished 14th of 18 · a lower-table side
3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th 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 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 82.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 36, Kelven carries the 8th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Süper Lig of 18, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Gençlerbirliği S.K. finished 14th of 18) — 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 moderate defensive volume (3.42 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
