J. Rodríguez is a 29-year-old full-back at Vasco DA Gama, rated 42.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 195th of 356 on scout potential in the Serie A. An experienced operator, he has been a rotation option this season (49.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.02 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rodríguez.

Judged on this season alone, Rodríguez graded 10 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 48th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Serie A, on 2 clean sheets and 2.022 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 12 → 10). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, 37th of 55 of the 55 full-backs in the Serie A. At 29 Rodríguez is in his prime years, and a market index of 11.2 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (15th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 4 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.41 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 49.4% 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 42.7, Rodríguez carries the 37th-highest potential of the full-backs in the Serie A of 55, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Vasco DA Gama finished 15th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
