Dashed line: current market value (€20.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Alex Iwobi's performance-implied value at EUR 17.6M-33.6M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 8.9M-19.9M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 5.5M-10.5M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.81x the positional average in the league (2436 minutes, league coefficient 1.30). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
