Club career
Rodriguez is a youth exponent from FC Zurich. He made his Swiss Super League debut at 20 July 2014 in the derby against Grasshopper Club Zürich. He played the full game, which ended in a 1-0 win.[2]
International career
Rodriguez is a Swiss under-19 international, but by his parents' nationality, he can play for Chile or Spain. In August 18, 2014, Jorge Sampaoli called Rodriguez to play for Chile [3] to play two friendlies against Mexico and Haiti, and he is set to make his full international debut. But in August 21, he refused to play for Chile, saying that he still preferred to play for Switzerland U-21 national football team.
