Dashed line: current market value (€6.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Yangel Herrera's performance-implied value at EUR 1.9M-4.9M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 2.6M-6.4M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.8M-4.8M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.02x the positional average in the league (638 minutes, league coefficient 0.95). Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
