Salih Uçan

Salih Uçan steps forward as one of the league’s Silver Wall midfielders, a seasoned shield in front of the defence. An eight-trophy career in Türkiye underlines his pedigree, and his role has evolved into that of a smart, safety-first presence who protects the back line rather than chases headlines.

This season is all about defensive security. Being the main card in three of his nine appearances, across just 393 minutes, shows how much impact he can have in short bursts. Gold-tier INTERCEPTOR and ENFORCER badges paint the picture of a midfielder who reads passing lanes early, steps in cleanly and relishes contact, with strong numbers in tackles and interceptions per 90. His overall rating of 53 and season ability at 50 reflect a stable baseline, even as his form hints at a quiet spell in search of rhythm. On the pentagon, his standout Workrate score captures the engine that drives his pressing and recovery runs.

The sample size is still building, so his reliability is marked as emerging, but a market value of €2M for a decorated, champion-profile “tank” adds context. If he plays through the slump and lifts his Stakes performances in crunch matches, he remains a valuable defensive leader in midfield.
