Milton Rodriguez (born April 28, 1976) is a football (soccer) player from Colombia. He currently plays as a striker for the Colombian club, América de Cali. He will make his debut in the derby match against Deportivo Cali. Previously, he played for the Newcastle Jets, who signed him a few days before the start of the 2006-07 season from K-League outfit Jeonbuk FC. He is a left-footer, an excitement machine and has two full international caps for Colombia. He arrived in Newcastle ready to make his debut in Round 4 after Visa issues prevented him and his family from entering the country.

He capped his debut for the Newcastle Jets by coming on as a substitute and scoring two goals in ten minutes making him an instant fan favourite.

His trademark headband is one of his most identifiable features.
