Dashed line: current market value (€5.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Ché Adams's performance-implied value at EUR 7.7M-16.2M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.7M-5.2M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.3M-3.4M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.02x the positional average in the league (1897 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.

Acquisition note: Final year of contract: selling club's leverage is reduced.
