Eldor Shomurodov became the star of the season in Turkey
The Turkish Super League is standing out this season with unique events. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The city of Istanbul has always been famous in the football world for big names and controversial situations. However, this time the brightest figure of the season is not the expected stars, but an Uzbek footballer — Eldor Shomurodov.
Eldor Shomurodov has become the unexpected star of the Turkish Super League. Usually, it is common to see world-class top scorers in the Super League scoring charts.
Players like Victor Osimhen, Mauro Icardi, and Marco Asensio are expected to lead in this regard. But currently, Eldor Shomurodov stands out in this list with his consistent play and hardworking nature.
The Italian media, particularly the publication "Teleradiostereo," also recognizes Eldor's achievements, describing him as the true discovery of the Turkish championship. According to the publication, he stands out on the field not as a famous star, but as a forward shining with confidence and skill.
During the summer transfer window, Eldor moved on loan from the Italian Serie A club "Roma" to Turkey's "Başakşehir." This transfer initially sparked various opinions: some called it a risky step, while others suggested it could serve to rediscover Eldor's potential.
However, Eldor found his place on the Bosphorus shores and is proving it not only through his play but also with numbers. Before the halfway point of the season, Eldor has 15 goals and 4 assists to his name.
This totals 19 points in the "goal+assist" system. This figure is the highest in the Super League, clearly demonstrating his effectiveness.
Such success of Eldor is no coincidence. It is due to the right environment, clear tactical tasks, and internal confidence.
Eldor previously played in Italy's Serie A. Although he showed good results in some matches for "Genoa," "Spezia," "Cagliari," and "Roma," he lacked consistency.
In Turkey, however, he is fully showcasing his abilities. At "Başakşehir," Eldor has become one of the main figures in the attacking line.
He creates depth in attack, is active in aerial duels, organizes play by dropping back, and demonstrates excellent cooperation with his teammates. Although other major Super League teams are filled with expensive stars, Eldor stands out with his playing style and hardworking nature.
He can score in various situations: in fast breaks, from close range, and in complex scenarios inside the penalty area. This shows his versatility and loyalty to his playing style.
Eldor's results are clearly visible in the top scorers' table. For example, Marco Asensio from "Fenerbahçe" has 9 goals and 7 assists, totaling 16 points, while Paul Onuachu from "Trabzonspor" has 15 goals and 1 assist, also totaling 16 points.
Anderson Talisca has 12 goals and 3 assists, totaling 15 points. Eldor leads this list with 19 points.
Eldor Shomurodov's performance this season is not just about numbers. It primarily reflects the player's rediscovery of himself, proving his worth, and showing that Uzbek footballers can also achieve success on big stages.
If Eldor maintains this consistency, this season could become a historic year not only for "Başakşehir" but also for Uzbek football. Source: zamin.uz
