Projected value (24 months)€5.9M – €16.1M
Dashed line: current market value (€15.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Dennis Man's performance-implied value at EUR 3.3M-10.3M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 9.6M-17.7M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 5.9M-16.1M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.81x the positional average in the league (1496 minutes, league coefficient 0.43). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
