Connor Barron
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Connor Barron's performance-implied value at EUR 2.1M-8.4M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 1.0M-3.4M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 1.1M-4.1M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.78x the positional average in the league (1234 minutes, league coefficient 0.31). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
