Value picture

Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.

Model value (performance-implied)€9.2M – €21.3M
Projected value (24 months)€4.4M – €10.7M
Dashed line: current market value (€20.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Leroy Sané's performance-implied value at EUR 9.2M-21.3M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 10.3M-19.0M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 4.4M-10.7M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.64x the positional average in the league (2288 minutes, league coefficient 0.40). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
