At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.

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 23–27 (~8), then tapers with age. At 21, Thea sits on 7, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Thea's projected Rating — 38.8 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.
