The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around age 23 (~23), then tapers with age. At 23, Akinsola sits on 23, at or near its peak. The blue line is Akinsola's projected Rating — 60.2 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.
