Scout report
Rodrigo Ely is a 32-year-old central defender at Almeria, rated 27.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 380th of 444 on scout potential in the Segunda División. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (55.5% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.37 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ely.
Judged on this season alone, Ely graded 23 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 45th of 93 of the 93 centre-backs in the Segunda División, on 3 clean sheets and 3.371 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 26 → 23). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2024/25.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 28, 76th of 93 of the 93 centre-backs in the Segunda División. At 32 Ely is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 6.4 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ely missed 28 games through injury (knee, ruptured cruciate ligament, injury) out of roughly 46 this season. The 15 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Almeria finished 3rd of 22 · an upper-table side
3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 22) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 55.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 27.6, Ely carries the 76th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Segunda División of 93. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
