The thirteenth place in the Telstar ranking does not give much cause for discussion. The White Lions have the lowest budget in the first division and often attract players who see the club from Velsen-Zuid as a springboard. Such a person is Özgür Aktas. The central defender is developing very strongly this season.
A few weeks ago against PSV for the cup, Özgür Aktas played very well. He gave his team a lead in Eindhoven and he was still close to scoring in the second half. In the end Telstar narrowly lost 2-1, but Aktas gave his calling card.
head strong
Aktas is scoring more often this season. So against PSV in the cup, but also four times in the competition. Each time with the head, his main weapon.
