Projected value (24 months)€507k – €1.4M
Dashed line: current market value (€1.5M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Kristijan Bistrovic's performance-implied value at EUR 0.6M-1.3M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.5M-1.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.5M-1.4M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.28x the positional average in the league (727 minutes, league coefficient 0.56). Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
