The model rates Maksim Mukhin's performance-implied value at EUR 0.4M-0.9M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.4M-1.2M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.6M-1.9M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.05x the positional average in the league (1051 minutes, league coefficient 0.56). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
