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 age 18 (~7), then tapers with age. At 18, Evans sits on 7.1, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Evans's projected Rating — 42.2 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.
