What separates Nicolò Savona and Josha Vagnoman

  • Savona is 2 years younger, which the models associate with more appreciation and resale potential.
  • Savona plays in a stronger league (1.30 vs 0.94); the other's output carries more translation uncertainty.
  • Vagnoman was used far more by the club (52% of minutes vs 30%).
  • Vagnoman is estimated to cost far less (€9.2M vs €15.4M mid-estimate).
  • On value for money the model prefers Savona (Bargain Index 59 vs 38) — this is not a statement about who is the better player.
