The model rates Nahuel Estévez's performance-implied value at EUR 0.5M-2.7M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.4M-1.5M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.4M-1.2M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.32x the positional average in the league (1032 minutes, league coefficient 0.93).
