Rodri is a 30-year-old defensive midfielder at Manchester City, rated 50.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 340th of 418 in the Premier League. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (67.2% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.51 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Rodri.
Judged on this season alone, Rodri graded 33 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 33rd of 55 of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 3.51 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 33). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 51, 44th of 55 of the 55 defensive midfielders in the Premier League. At 30 Rodri is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 50.6 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Rodri missed 13 games through injury (thigh, groin, hamstring) out of roughly 38 this season. The 21 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.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 21 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) 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 1 goal and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 50.6, Rodri carries the 44th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Premier League of 55. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.51 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~101), then tapers with age. At 30, Rodri sits on 50.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Rodri's projected Rating — 50.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
