Playing Style & Assessment
A young player who stands out on the right flank for pace and one-on-one ability, still in a developmental stage. His loan spell suggests he is well suited to the tempo of lower-division football and getting regular game time.
Strengths
- Early international recognition — Being the first Turkish Cypriot called up to the Cyprus youth national team is a notable achievement for his age
- Loan experience — Regular playing time in the third tier may have supported his development
Development Areas
- Lack of top-tier experience — There is no clear evidence he has yet had regular playing time at TFF First League level
- Adaptation after returning from loan — Moving from a lower division back up may require a physical and tactical adjustment period
Level Projection
Verdict: His youth and long contract mark him as a future-focused investment for the club; he carries development potential if he secures regular playing time in the TFF First League.
Sporting Director’s Note

| Primary role | Winger |

| Key strength | Early international recognition |
