Projected value (24 months)€1.7M – €3.3M
Dashed line: current market value (€3.5M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Lincoln's performance-implied value at EUR 0.8M-2.3M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.2M-4.0M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.7M-3.3M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.90x the positional average in the league (2376 minutes, league coefficient 0.58). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Contract end date unavailable: range widened by 15% each side.

MoneyballAI identifies statistical opportunities from available data. A player flagged as a potential bargain is not guaranteed to succeed, to transfer, to rise in value, or to generate resale profit.
