By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
How do you get the best out of İsmail Köybaşı?
Their place is the flank, up and down the wing as LB. Use them as a wing-back in a back three or with a holding midfielder to cover their runs. They can also play LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Attacking wingback and Wingback, which reinforce that profile.
What do they do well?
What makes them reliable: acceleration (73) and crossing (70). That run-of-the-mill acceleration is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their soft spots: marking (56) and tackling (62). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Worth around 384 K€ with 6 K€ wages. At their age their value only drops: negotiate and don't tie a long contract. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.
