Sem Scheperman
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Sem Scheperman's performance-implied value at EUR 0.3M-0.6M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.2M-0.6M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.4M-0.8M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.23x the positional average in the league (1124 minutes, league coefficient 0.43).
