Scout report

Experienced headCreative Attacking midfielder

Y. Namli is a 32-year-old attacking midfielder at PEC Zwolle, enjoying a standout season — 2 goals and 4 assists in 13 appearances, a Season grade of 38, top 38% of Eredivisie attacking midfielders. On long-term scout potential he's rated 31.1, ranking 251st of 284 in the Eredivisie. A seasoned veteran, he has been a regular starter (69.1% of available minutes). He brings 0.51 goal contributions per 90 (0.17 goals, 0.34 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Namli.

Judged on this season alone, Namli graded 38 — a solid campaign that ranks top 38% of the 56 attacking midfielders in the Eredivisie, on 2 goals and 4 assists in 13 appearances (0.511 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 21 → 38). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 31, 50th of 56 of the 56 attacking midfielders in the Eredivisie. At 32 Namli is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 9.6 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Namli missed 3 games through injury (inactive) out of roughly 34 this season. The 13 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Goals / app

2 goals in 13 appearances (0.15 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 4 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 6 goal contributions (0.46 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 69.1% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Final-third output. 0.51 goal contributions per 90 (0.17 goals, 0.34 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 31.1, Namli carries the 50th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Eredivisie of 56 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.51 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
