Gianluca Scamacca
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Gianluca Scamacca's performance-implied value at EUR 7.9M-37.6M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 18.5M-30.7M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 8.1M-26.2M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.95x the positional average in the league (1319 minutes, league coefficient 0.93). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
