Value picture
Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.
The model rates Carlos Álvarez's performance-implied value at EUR 2.7M-7.6M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 7.0M-19.7M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 7.9M-23.6M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.05x the positional average in the league (1898 minutes, league coefficient 0.95).

Acquisition note: Final year of contract: selling club's leverage is reduced.
