Diogo Nascimento
Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Diogo Nascimento's performance-implied value at EUR 1.6M-7.2M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 2.3M-6.4M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 2.4M-9.8M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.68x the positional average in the league (968 minutes, league coefficient 0.43). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.
