Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 1 → 7). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 62, top 21% of the 63 central midfielders in the Serie A. At 22 Rodriguinho is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 27.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Rodriguinho missed 8 games through injury (knee, inactive) out of roughly 38 this season. The 18 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.
Rodriguinho is operating at his career peak — the 2025/26 level is the level.
Output in context · Sao Paulo finished 8th of 20 · a mid-table side
2.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 18 appearances.
Strengths
- Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 28.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
Outlook
With a Rating of 61.8, Rodriguinho carries the 13th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Serie A of 63 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.59 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
