Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Pau López's performance-implied value at EUR 1.2M-3.3M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.9M-3.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.9M-2.2M. Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
