Value picture

Where the market, the likely price and the model estimates sit.

Model value (performance-implied)€1.6M – €10.6M
Projected value (24 months)€4.7M – €21.0M
Dashed line: current market value (€8.0M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Ethan Mbappé's performance-implied value at EUR 1.6M-10.6M, below the estimated acquisition range of EUR 6.3M-14.5M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 4.7M-21.0M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.03x the positional average in the league (559 minutes, league coefficient 0.88). Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

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