Dashed line: current market value (€2.5M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Matheus Reis's performance-implied value at EUR 0.8M-2.2M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.9M-2.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.6M-1.6M. Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Risk profile

Overall: Very High

  • ▲Small sample: 828 league minutes last season.
  • ⚠League level coefficient 0.56 (1.00 = big-five average): output may not translate.
  • ⚠League level estimated mainly from squad values (few matches vs other leagues).
  • ⚠Age 31: resale value typically declines.
  • ⚠Played under 40% of available league minutes (injury data unavailable, cause unknown).
  • ⓘInjury history unavailable from current data source.
