On 30 July 2019, Rodríguez joined another reserve team, Club Recreativo Granada also in the third level.[5] He made his first team debut on 17 December, starting in a 3–2 away win against CE L'Hospitalet, for the season's Copa del Rey.[6]

Rodríguez made his La Liga debut on 1 July 2020, coming on as a late substitute for Gil Dias in a 2–0 away defeat of Deportivo Alavés.[7] On 15 September, he moved to abroad and signed with Polish side Warta Poznań.[8]

Rodríguez returned to Spain in March 2022, joining Levante UD's reserves in Segunda División RFEF.[9] On 29 July, he moved to fellow league team SD Compostela.[10]
