Clean sheets

4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

Availability. On the pitch for 66.6% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.2 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
Defensive volume. 4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 12.6 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.38 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

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 ages 23–27 (~3), then tapers with age. At 34, Çiftçi sits on 1, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Çiftçi's projected Rating — 12.6 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.
