Dashed line: current market value (€35.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Curtis Jones's performance-implied value at EUR 33.9M-58.9M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 14.7M-34.9M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 16.6M-39.9M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.55x the positional average in the league (1930 minutes, league coefficient 1.30). 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.
