Club career

Born in Alcalá de Henares, Community of Madrid, Rodríguez played only lower league football in his country, notably representing Atlético Madrid's reserves in the Segunda División B.[1] Late into the 2014 January transfer window he joined Austrian Football First League club SV Mattersburg, contributing five games in his first full season to help it return to the Bundesliga after two years.

Rodríguez made his debut in top-flight football on 15 August 2015, being sent off early into an eventual 5–1 away loss against FK Austria Wien.[2] He scored his first goal for the team on 22 October 2016, helping to a 2–2 draw at SK Sturm Graz by netting in the 95th minute.[3]
