Rodrigo Riquelme is a 26-year-old central midfielder at Real Betis, rated 68.3 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 171st of 389 in the La Liga. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (25.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.26 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Riquelme.
Judged on this season alone, Riquelme graded 14 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 61st of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga, on 1 goal, 1 assist and 2.255 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 7 → 14). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 68, 33rd of 73 of the 73 central midfielders in the La Liga. At 26 Riquelme is in his prime years, and a market index of 125.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th 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 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 68.3, Riquelme carries the 33rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the La Liga of 73 — though on just 25 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.

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 (~126), then tapers with age. At 26, Riquelme sits on 125.7, at or near its peak. The blue line is Riquelme's projected Rating — 68.3 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.
