Dashed line: current market value (€10.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Ludovic Blas's performance-implied value at EUR 4.7M-9.8M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 3.5M-8.0M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 3.4M-8.0M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.38x the positional average in the league (1542 minutes, league coefficient 0.88). Confidence is medium: 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.
