Miguel Rodríguez

Miguel Rodríguez made 24 Eredivisie appearances for FC Utrecht, starting 15 times and scoring three goals. That points to a useful but not dominant right-wing role – involved regularly, trusted often enough from the start, but with output spread across league and Europe rather than built around sustained league production. Four yellows and one red also made his discipline part of the season profile.

Rodríguez’s senior path has moved from Celta Vigo into the Eredivisie, with FC Utrecht turning an initial loan into a permanent deal. The pattern suggests a player who needed regular minutes away from Spain and found a clearer role in the Netherlands, where his goals return became more visible than it had been at Celta.

The transfer record shows a trainee move into Celta Vigo in 2017, a loan to FC Utrecht in 2024, then a €1.0m permanent transfer in 2025. With his listed market value now €6.50m, Utrecht appear to have bought after a productive loan spell rather than taking a speculative punt.
