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 24, Peglow sits on 8.2, at or near its peak. The blue line is Peglow's projected Rating — 44 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines.
