Scout report

Experienced headCentral midfielder

O. Yokuşlu is a 32-year-old central midfielder at Trabzonspor, rated 17.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 291st of 326 on scout potential in the Süper Lig. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (35.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.31 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yokuşlu.

Judged on this season alone, Yokuşlu graded 13 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 22nd of 29 of the 29 central midfielders in the Süper Lig, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 2.305 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 23 → 13). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 18, 28th of 29 of the 29 central midfielders in the Süper Lig. At 32 Yokuşlu is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Yokuşlu missed 5 games through injury and 1 suspension (inactive) out of roughly 34 this season. The 22 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.

Clean sheets

2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 18) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • 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 17.5, Yokuşlu carries the 28th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Süper Lig of 29 — though on just 22 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
