Scout report

Project playerGoalkeeper

U. Çakır is a 30-year-old goalkeeper at Galatasaray, enjoying a standout season — 0 goals and 0 assists in 29 appearances, a Season grade of 33, top 4% of Süper Lig goalkeepers. On long-term scout potential he's rated 31.7, ranking 67th of 125 in the Süper Lig. An experienced operator, he has been an ever-present (85.3% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Çakır.

Judged on this season alone, Çakır graded 33 — a standout campaign that ranks top 5% of the 23 goalkeepers in the Süper Lig, on 10 clean sheets across 29 appearances.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 33 → 33). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has held fairly steady, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 32, 11th of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the Süper Lig. At 30 Çakır is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.1 reflects that trajectory.

10 clean sheets in 29 appearances (34% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (1st of 18) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 85.3% 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 31.7, Çakır carries the 11th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the Süper Lig of 23. A near ever-present keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
