Judged on this season alone, Rodrigão graded 28 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 51 centre-backs in the Super Liga, on 8 clean sheets and 2.99 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 2 → 28). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23, 33rd of 51 of the 51 centre-backs in the Super Liga. At 30 Rodrigão is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 8) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.21 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 51.5% 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 22.8, Rodrigão carries the 33rd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Super Liga of 51. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.99 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
