Hi,

Could this specimen be Rana arvalis?
Metatarsal tubercle look not really small, but i'm not really familiar with it...

Not sure how knowledgeable you are about the herpetofauna of the region, but as far as I know arvalis is restricted to a single site. Might be that your frog comes from that one place, of course.
