Ibrahima Diaby
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Ibrahima Diaby's performance-implied value at EUR 0.2M-1.9M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.6M-7.2M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.0M-6.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.15x the positional average in the league (647 minutes, league coefficient 0.65). Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
