Dashed line: current market value (€1.5M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Ola Solbakken's performance-implied value at EUR 0.6M-1.8M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.5M-1.6M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.6M-1.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.97x the positional average in the league (1171 minutes, league coefficient 0.47). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
