Pre-Peak Value Efficiency (PPVE)

Identifies pre-peak players offering exceptional value relative to their age bracket. Higher PPVE = better value.

Understanding Pre-Peak Value Efficiency (PPVE)

FC Porto's Borja Sainz at 24 years old has the highest Pre-Peak Value Efficiency at 14.29×. That means Borja Sainz is valued 14.29× higher than the median player in the 24-26 age bracket—representing exceptional value before reaching peak age.

In second is SL Benfica's Andreas Schjelderup, who is 21 years old, with a 10.00× PPVE. Third is Sorriso of FC Famalicão, who is 24 years old with a 3.57× PPVE.

How PPVE is calculated: PPVE compares a player's current market value to the median value of all players in their age bracket. A PPVE of 14.29× means the player is worth 1329% more than typical players their age—making them high-value targets before they reach peak value.

Risk-Adjusted Upside (RAU)

Upside potential weighted against forecast uncertainty. Higher RAU = better risk-reward profile.

Understanding Risk-Adjusted Upside (RAU)

FC Porto's William Gomes has the highest Risk-Adjusted Upside at 58.0. That means William Gomes has 19% upside potential with only 0% forecast uncertainty—representing excellent risk-reward for value appreciation.

In second is Avs Futebol's Óscar Perea with a 46.3 RAU (15% upside, 0% uncertainty). Third is Andreas Schjelderup of SL Benfica with a 33.7 RAU (10% upside, 0% uncertainty).

How RAU is calculated: RAU divides upside potential by forecast uncertainty (RAU = Upside % ÷ Uncertainty %). A RAU of 58.0 means the upside is 58.0× greater than the uncertainty—making it a high-confidence growth opportunity. Target RAU ≥2.0 for balanced risk-reward.

Squad depth pressure based on Z-score distribution. Negative RPI = thin depth, positive = deep roster.

What This Shows

Z-Score explained: Measures how many standard deviations a player's strength is from the position average. Z-Score = 0 means average, +1.0 is one standard deviation above average, -1.0 is below average.

How to use: RPI < -1.0 indicates critical depth shortage. These positions need immediate reinforcement. RPI > +1.0 suggests strong depth, allowing selective, high-value additions only.

Current market: left winger position shows weak depth (avg Z-score: -0.00). RPI: -0.00.

Age-Share Concentration (ASC)

Identifies players capturing disproportionate value relative to age group representation. Positive ASC = value concentration.

Understanding Age-Share Concentration (ASC)

FC Famalicão's Antoine Joujou in the 21-23 age bracket has the highest Age-Share Concentration at +-11.9%. That means Andreas Schjelderup captures 32.8% of total market value while representing only 44.7% of players in their age group—showing dominant elite status.

In second is Casa Pia AC's Kelian Nsona with a +-11.9% ASC (32.8% value share vs 44.7% player share in 21-23 bracket). Third is Joelson Fernandes of Gil Vicente FC with a +-11.9% ASC (32.8% value vs 44.7% players in 21-23 bracket).

How ASC is calculated: ASC = (% of total value) - (% of total players) in age bracket. A +-11.9% ASC means the player captures -11.9% more market value than their numerical representation—indicating marquee status. ASC > +15% = elite dominance, ASC < -15% = potential value targets.
