Kiril Despodov
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Kiril Despodov's performance-implied value at EUR 0.6M-2.7M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.3M-4.1M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.1M-3.4M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.70x the positional average in the league (805 minutes, league coefficient 0.43). Confidence is low: 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.
