Clean sheets

4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 12 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Defensive volume. 4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 33.2% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 45.1, Rodríguez carries the 22nd-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga Profesional Argentina of 72 — though on just 12 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (4.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
