Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rodríguez.
On the season, Rodríguez graded 16 for current form (age-blind), on 3 goals and 2 assists in 14 appearances (0.459 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 16 → 16). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 12. At 35 Rodríguez is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Leon finished 10th of 18 · a mid-table side
3 goals in 14 appearances (0.21 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 5 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.46 goal contributions per 90 (0.28 goals, 0.18 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 32.1% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 35, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 12 overall — below regular-starter level. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.46 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
