Key Facts & Executive Summary
Profile: right-footed inverted left winger, 1.84 m, 18 years old, Antalyaspor academy (Turkey, Süper Lig). Combines above-average size for a winger with explosive acceleration and repeat sprint capacity.
Official output: 15 goals + 24 assists in 77 TFF-registered matches across U15–U21, Turkish Cup and league. All goals are documented in TFF PDFs (linked below).
Physical data: GPS-verified 30 m 3.71–3.75 s, peak session 6,515 m, high-intensity and sprint distances consistent over six GPS records with very strong acceleration/deceleration numbers.
Risk: No relevant injuries, 100% availability in recent seasons, steady physical growth curve.
Conclusion: This is not a “concept player”, but a data-backed winger project with clear strengths and transparent development needs.

GPS-Verified Performance (Oct–Nov 2025)
Peak metrics across six GPS sessions (09 Oct – 05 Nov 2025):
30 m sprint: 3.71–3.75 s (structure for 0–5, 0–10, 0–20, 0–30 m splits below) • Peak total distance: 6,515 m • High-speed running (20–25 km/h): up to 406 m • Sprint >25 km/h: up to 176 m • Accelerations ≥2 m/s²: up to 94 • Decelerations ≥2 m/s²: up to 103.
Top speed in km/h ist visible in the detailed table below but not used as a marketing headline. The relevant story for scouts and coaches is acceleration, repeat efforts and recovery.

30 m sprint – split structure (GPS)
| Split | Distance | Time (s) | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–5 m | 5 m | – | First step / explosion out of stance |
| 0–10 m | 10 m | – | Acceleration phase, crucial for 1v1 separation |
| 0–20 m | 20 m | – | Build-up to top speed (pressing & depth runs) |
| 0–30 m | 30 m | 3.71–3.75 | Documented GPS window across six sessions |
| Flying 10–30 m | 20 m | – | Top speed maintenance (use if lab split is available) |
Split times (0–5, 0–10, 0–20, flying 10–30 m) can be filled directly from the GPS export or lab test. The structure is prepared so clubs can copy-paste their own values without changing the layout.
Tactical & Technical Radar (coach / scout view)
Axes (0–10, internal assessment based on current data):
- Pace & acceleration: 9/10 – supported by 30 m and GPS load.
- 1v1 / Dribbling: 8/10 – high attempt volume, good success; efficiency can still grow.
- Work rate / pressing: 9/10 – accelerations, decelerations and distance support an aggressive defending profile.
- Endurance & repeat sprints: 9/10 – peak 6,515 m with strong high-intensity shares.
- Final-third decision-making: 7/10 – output is good, but selection of final action can be sharpened.
- Robustness / availability: 9/10 – no injury history, consistent data over several seasons.
Ratings are conservative and used for internal comparison only. They translate the documented data and match impressions into a simple visual profile for coaches and scouts.
