In his prime years, he has been a regular starter this season (74.8% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.02 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Yılmaz.

Judged on this season alone, Yılmaz graded 31 — a strong campaign that ranks top 28% of the 62 full-backs in the Süper Lig, on 7 clean sheets and 3.017 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 17 → 31). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 48, top 12% of the 62 full-backs in the Süper Lig. At 25 Yılmaz is in his prime years, and a market index of 12.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Yılmaz missed 3 games through injury (inactive, 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.

Clean sheets

3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (4th 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.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 74.8% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 48.4, Yılmaz carries the 7th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Süper Lig (top 12%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
