Model value (performance-implied)€379k – €679k
Projected value (24 months)€49k – €285k
Dashed line: current market value (€300k). Bars are 20–80% model ranges; tick = median.

The model rates Pylyp Budkivskyi's performance-implied value at EUR 0.4M-0.7M, above the estimated acquisition range of EUR 0.1M-0.3M. Its 24-month market value projection is EUR 0.0M-0.3M. Context-adjusted goal contributions are 1.13x the positional average in the league (2358 minutes, league coefficient 0.25). Confidence is medium: no event-level data (xG, progressive actions) is available from the current free source, and injury history is unavailable.

Acquisition note: Around 18 months left: some discount usually possible.
