Dashed line: current market value (€1.2M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Malthe Højholt's performance-implied value at EUR 0.4M-1.6M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.4M-1.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.7M-1.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.82x the positional average in the league (850 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.
