Dashed line: current market value (€15.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Olivier Boscagli's performance-implied value at EUR 9.8M-27.7M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 8.3M-19.1M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 4.4M-11.0M. Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
