Model value (performance-implied)€1.5M – €4.0M
Projected value (24 months)€1.7M – €3.2M
Dashed line: current market value (€4.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Manuel Neuer's performance-implied value at EUR 1.5M-4.0M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.4M-4.1M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.7M-3.2M. Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Final year of contract: selling club's leverage is reduced.

MoneyballAI identifies statistical opportunities from available data. A player flagged as a potential bargain is not guaranteed to succeed, to transfer, to rise in value, or to generate resale profit.
