Although Beşiktaş has fallen short of expectations this season, the team has some players who have stood out for their consistency. One of the most prominent of these players is the Portuguese forward Rafa Silva. With his attacking power and contribution to team play, Silva has become the most reliable player in "Kara Kartal" (Black Eagle). His performance throughout the season helped carry Beşiktaş's offensive line, proving he is one of the team's key figures.

In the Super Lig, Beşiktaş finished the season with 17 wins, 11 draws, and 8 losses, accumulating 62 points and securing 4th place. These results show that the team fell short of the success expected in the race for the top spot in recent years. However, when evaluating the team's overall performance, it can be said that some players performed individually at a very high level. Especially, Rafa Silva, playing 35 matches, scored 12 goals, becoming the team’s top scorer, while contributing 18 goals in 49 matches across all competitions.

Over the past four seasons, Beşiktaş has been out of the championship race, but the squad had a rich depth in terms of player rotation. A total of 32 different players appeared in Super Lig matches, showcasing the depth of the squad and the variety of the coaching staff. In addition to Rafa Silva, goalkeeper Mert Günok also played 3,060 minutes, making him one of the team’s most consistent players. Günok’s performance played an essential role in maintaining the security of Beşiktaş’s defensive line.

Another notable domestic player this season was defender Emirhan Topçu. Emirhan played 1,821 minutes, helping solidify Beşiktaş's defensive line. However, when looking at the overall performance of the team throughout the season, the inclusion of young players alongside experienced ones is considered a promising development for the future.

The average age of the players this season was recorded as 26.96. Beşiktaş’s squad included both young players and experienced footballers, creating an important balance for the team's future. The relatively young average age strengthens Beşiktaş's goal of building a more dynamic and powerful squad in the coming years. Notably, the inclusion of 18-year-old Mustafa Hekimoğlu is seen as a valuable step for Beşiktaş in the long term.
