A. Opoku is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Kayserispor, rated 37.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 142nd of 326 on scout potential in the Süper Lig. In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (62.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.6 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Opoku.

Judged on this season alone, Opoku graded 20 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 13th of 29 of the 29 central midfielders in the Süper Lig, on 0 goals, 2 assists and 1.603 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 14 → 20). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

Clean sheets

1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 19 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (17th 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 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 62.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.6 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 37.4, Opoku carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Süper Lig of 29, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Kayserispor finished 17th 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 light defensive volume (1.6 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
