Model value (performance-implied)€289k – €993k
Projected value (24 months)€377k – €1.1M
Dashed line: current market value (€1.2M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Pablo Álvarez's performance-implied value at EUR 0.3M-1.0M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.0M-0.4M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.4M-1.1M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.61x the positional average in the league (1010 minutes, league coefficient 0.25). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Contract ends within 6 months: can sign a pre-contract; small or no fee.

Risk profile

Overall: Very High

  • ▲League level coefficient 0.25 (1.00 = big-five average): output may not translate.
  • ⚠Limited sample: 1010 league minutes last season.
  • ⚠No continental-competition minutes last season.
  • ⚠Contract ends in 6 months: cheaper, but competition and wage demands likely.
  • ⚠Played under 40% of available league minutes (injury data unavailable, cause unknown).
  • ⓘInjury history unavailable from current data source.
