Model value (performance-implied)€952k – €2.9M
Projected value (24 months)€604k – €1.8M
Dashed line: current market value (€1.5M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Oier Zarraga's performance-implied value at EUR 1.0M-2.9M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.4M-1.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.6M-1.8M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.86x the positional average in the league (456 minutes, league coefficient 0.93). Confidence is low: 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.

MoneyballAI identifies statistical opportunities from available data. A player flagged as a potential bargain is not guaranteed to succeed, to transfer, to rise in value, or to generate resale profit.
