Value & potential by age

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 21–27 (~0), then tapers with age. At 31, Paju sits on 0.2, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Paju's projected Rating — 7.9 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
