Playing Style Profiles

Umut Meraş

Meraş is the quintessential high-volume progressive outlet masquerading as a standard Super Lig fullback. While his raw pass accuracy of 77.9% suggests a mere league-average distributor, the context reveals a far more ambitious operator; he ranks in the top 20% for passes into the final third (6.24/90), proving he is the one tasked with breaking lines rather than recycling possession.

Levent Mercan

A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, an elite creator (1.6 key passes/90), a reliable supplier (0.24 assists/90), active in the tackle (2.0 tackles/90), meticulous in distribution (85% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (58% duel success), central to possession (77 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.6 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
