Output in context · Vanspor FK finished 14th of 20 · a lower-table side
5.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 33 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (14th of 20) 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 75.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Defensive volume. 5.16 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 31.2, Özcan carries the 21st-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the 1. Lig of 44, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vanspor FK finished 14th of 20) — 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 high defensive volume (5.16 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.
