Scout report

Project playerFull-back

M. Rodin is a 30-year-old full-back at Lechia Gdansk, rated 22.1 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 41st of 66 on scout potential in the Ekstraklasa. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (75% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.02 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rodin.

Judged on this season alone, Rodin graded 14 — a strong campaign that ranks top 20% of the 5 full-backs in the Ekstraklasa, on 2 clean sheets and 3.02 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 26 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 3rd of 5 of the 5 full-backs in the Ekstraklasa. At 30 Rodin is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.6 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 26 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (16th of 18) 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 1 goal and 3 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 75% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.16 goal involvements per 90, useful for a full-back.

Watch points

  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 22.1, Rodin carries the 3rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the Ekstraklasa of 5, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Lechia Gdansk finished 16th of 18) — 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 (3.02 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
