Tom van de Looi
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Tom van de Looi's performance-implied value at EUR 0.7M-3.9M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.9M-4.6M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 3.0M-6.5M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.27x the positional average in the league (2753 minutes, league coefficient 0.58). 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.
Bargain Index: 91
