Projected value (24 months)€2.2M – €4.6M
Dashed line: current market value (€7.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Robert Lewandowski's performance-implied value at EUR 3.2M-8.8M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 2.6M-9.7M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 2.2M-4.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.74x the positional average in the league (1656 minutes, league coefficient 0.95). 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.
