Lucas Torreira
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Lucas Torreira's performance-implied value at EUR 4.0M-18.0M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 3.6M-10.2M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 2.7M-6.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.48x the positional average in the league (2227 minutes, league coefficient 0.40). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
