The model rates Christopher Martins's performance-implied value at EUR 1.2M-4.1M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.0M-3.5M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.0M-3.0M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.61x the positional average in the league (1122 minutes, league coefficient 0.56).
