Melih İbrahimoğlu
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Melih İbrahimoğlu's performance-implied value at EUR 0.5M-0.9M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.7M-2.4M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.3M-3.5M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.55x the positional average in the league (2286 minutes, league coefficient 0.40). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
Acquisition note: Final year of contract: selling club's leverage is reduced.
