Club career
Born in Madrid, Rodri joined Atlético Madrid's youth setup in 2007, aged 11. Released in 2013 due to the "lack of physical strength", he subsequently moved to Villarreal CF.[1][2]
On 7 February 2015, while still a junior, Rodri made his senior debut for the reserves, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–1 away win against RCD Espanyol B.[3] He was handed his first start fifteen days later, in a 2–0 win at Real Zaragoza B.
On 17 December 2015 Rodri made his first team debut, starting in a 2–0 Copa del Rey home win against SD Huesca.[4]
