Scout report
Y. Konak is a 20-year-old defensive midfielder at Oxford United, rated 58.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 243rd of 493 on scout potential in the Championship and 240th of 995 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been a fringe squad member this season (21.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.71 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Konak.
Judged on this season alone, Konak graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 63rd of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 3.712 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 7). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 58, 29th of 65 of the 65 defensive midfielders in the Championship. At 20 Konak is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 22.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Oxford United finished 22nd of 24 · a relegation-threatened side
3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (22nd of 24) 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.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
- Ceiling. High potential at just 20 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 21.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 58.4, Konak carries the 29th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Championship of 65 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.71 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 20, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
