Projected value (24 months)€724k – €1.8M
Dashed line: current market value (€2.4M). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Stephan El Shaarawy's performance-implied value at EUR 1.4M-6.2M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.8M-2.9M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.7M-1.8M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 0.83x the positional average in the league (657 minutes, league coefficient 0.93). Confidence is low: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Contract end date unavailable: range widened by 15% each side.
