Scout report

Squad depthAttacking midfielder

O. Ülgün is a 28-year-old attacking midfielder at Gençlerbirliği S.K., rated 35.2 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 161st of 326 on scout potential in the Süper Lig. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (58% of available minutes). He brings 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.22 goals, 0.17 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ülgün.

Judged on this season alone, Ülgün graded 25 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Süper Lig, on 4 goals and 3 assists in 25 appearances (0.389 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 16 → 25). Across the 5 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 30th of 58 of the 58 attacking midfielders in the Süper Lig. At 28 Ülgün is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.8 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Ülgün missed 3 games through injury (hamstring, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 25 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

4 goals in 25 appearances (0.16 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. He also laid on 3 assists, so the all-round involvement reads 7 goal contributions (0.28 per appearance).

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.39 goal contributions per 90 (0.22 goals, 0.17 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 58% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.2, Ülgün carries the 30th-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the Süper Lig of 58, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Gençlerbirliği S.K. finished 14th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.39 goal contributions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
