Mama Baldé
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Mama Baldé's performance-implied value at EUR 1.4M-3.8M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.0M-2.8M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.7M-1.9M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.04x the positional average in the league (712 minutes, league coefficient 0.88). Confidence is low: 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.
