Hakan Arslan Scout Report
In our latest scout report, we cast an analytical gaze over Sivasspor's Turkish jewel, Hakan Arslan. Performing in the central midfielder role, Arslan is an imposing figure in the Süper Lig. Despite his advanced age of 35, he embodies the archetype of a no-nonsense, hardworking playmaker with his standout ball recovery (top 7% percent) and unrivaled ball retention abilities (top 2%).
Still, the engine of Sivasspor’s midfield doesn't shy away from making risky advancements - showing impressive stats for progressive carrying and passing, echoing in the top 31 percentile and 31% respectively. Here's a player who not only retrieves the ball but advances it purposefully. His acumen for interceptions (top 15%) highlights his anticipatory reading of the game, and with a duel win percentage in the top quarter, he won't easily be shrugged off the ball.
However, Arslan's style of play isn't without its blemishes. His chance creation lurks alarmingly low (bottom 3%) and his assist rates per 90 minutes leave a lot to be desired. This suggests that while his involvement in the build-up play is significant, he struggles to provide the final decisive pass. Moreover, despite his high goal efficiency (top 2%), his xG per 90 and actual goals per 90 rates show a clear underperformance, indicating a potential issue with converting chances.
Simply put, Arslan is a defensive bedrock who shows a canny ability to disrupt opponent's play and distribute the ball effectively. However, his scoring conversion and chance creation skills need sharpening to attain a well-rounded style of play. He remains, nonetheless, a valuable asset to any team looking for experience and solidity in their midfield ranks.
