Club career [ edit ]

Early career [ edit ]

Born in Rio de Janeiro , Rodrigo moved to Spain in his early teens, settling in Galicia and started playing organised football with RC Celta de Vigo . In 2009, aged 18, he moved to Real Madrid to complete his development. [4]

Only a few weeks after arriving, Rodrigo started playing as a senior with the C team . Shortly after, he was promoted to Real Madrid Castilla in Segunda Division B , making his debut with the latter on 29 November 2009 in a 4?3 away win against UD Lanzarote (29 minutes played). [5]

Benfica [ edit ]

On 31 July 2010, Rodrigo signed a five-year contract with S.L. Benfica for a reported fee of €6 million. Real Madrid had an option to re-buy the player for €12 million during the next two seasons; however, after Fabio Coentrao 's transfer to the Spanish club, both parties agreed to cancel the buyback clause. [6]

The following month, Rodrigo joined Premier League side Bolton Wanderers on a season -long loan. [7] [8] He made his official debut in a League Cup fixture at Burnley on 21 September, starting in a 1?0 away loss . [9]

Rodrigo first appeared in the league for Bolton on 23 October 2010, coming on as a substitute for Lee Chung-yong midway through the second half of a 1?1 away draw with Wigan Athletic . [10] On 5 January 2011, against the same opponent, he scored his only goal of the campaign, with the game ending with the same result. [11]

Rodrigo lining up for Benfica in 2012

Returning to Benfica for 2011?12 , Rodrigo played 38 competitive matches in his first year and scored 16 goals, including the opener in the season 's Taca da Liga final against Gil Vicente FC , which his team won for the fourth year in a row (2?1). [12] On 2 January 2013, he combined with Oscar Cardozo for five goals in a 6?0 home defeat of C.D. Aves in the fifth round of the Taca de Portugal . [13]

On 31 January 2014, Benfica (and Benfica Stars Fund ) sold 100% of Rodrigo's economic rights to a private company, Meriton Capital Limited, owned by Peter Lim , for €30 million, plus another potential €10 million on performance-related bonuses [14] ? he remained with them until the end of the campaign . [15] [16] On 10 April, he scored a brace in a 2?0 home win against AZ Alkmaar in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League , which took the hosts through to the last-four stage 3?0 on aggregate. [17]

Rodrigo scored Benfica's first goal in a 2?0 final victory over Rio Ave F.C. in the League Cup , and was subsequently voted player of the match as the Lisbon side won the competition for the fifth time in seven years. [18] On 14 May he had his penalty shootout attempt saved by Sevilla FC 's Beto , in an eventual Europa League final loss; [19] [20] in total, he contributed 18 goals in 43 appearances across all competitions [21] to win an unprecedented treble of Primeira Liga , Taca de Portugal and League Cup. [22] [23]

Valencia [ edit ]

On 23 July 2014, Rodrigo moved back to Spain, after agreeing to a one-season loan deal with Valencia CF . [24] Although his economic rights were owned by Lim, a loan was arranged to take him and Andre Gomes to Valencia due to Lim's purchase of the latter club. [25]

Rodrigo made his debut for the Che on 23 August 2014, starting and playing the full 90 minutes in a 1?1 away draw against Sevilla. [26] He scored his first La Liga goal on 22 September, netting the last of a 3?0 away win over Getafe CF through a penalty , but was later sent off ; [27] he was dismissed the following 30 May for striking Rayo Vallecano 's Tono , and banned for three games by the Royal Spanish Football Federation . [28]

On 15 June 2015, Benfica and Valencia announced they had reached an agreement on Rodrigo's federative rights, and he signed a four-year contract with the latter until 30 June 2019, for a reported fee of €30 million, which made him their most expensive transfer at the time . [29] [30] After moderate returns in his first three seasons at the Mestalla Stadium , he scored a career-best 16 goals (19 in all competitions) in 2017?18 as the Marcelino Garcia Toral -led team qualified for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League ; [31] in late November 2017, he was rewarded with a new deal through 2022 with a reported release clause of €120 million. [32]

On 29 January 2019, Rodrigo scored a second-half hat-trick ? including two goals in injury time ? as the hosts defeated Getafe 3?1 in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey , winning the tie 3?2 on aggregate. [33] He also scored in the decisive match , a 2?1 defeat of FC Barcelona at the Estadio Benito Villamarin . [34]

On 17 September 2019, Rodrigo scored the only goal of the match in the first Champions League group stage fixture , providing Valencia's first ever win against Chelsea in the club's history. [35] [36] [37] On 10 December, he repeated the feat in a 1?0 away win over AFC Ajax to reach the knockout phase. [38]

Leeds United [ edit ]

On 29 August 2020, Leeds United announced the signing of Rodrigo on a four-year deal for a club-record fee of £27 million (€30 million). [39] [40] He made his Premier League debut for them in the first match of the season against reigning champions Liverpool on 12 September, coming on as a substitute in the 4?3 defeat at Anfield . [41] Four days later, he made his first start in a 1?1 draw with League One side Hull City in the EFL Cup (penalty shootout loss). [42]

Rodrigo scored his first goal on 3 October 2020, in a 1?1 home league draw against Manchester City . [43] Having missed several games through a groin injury at the beginning of 2021, [44] he was used sparingly by Marcelo Bielsa upon his return before hitting strong form at the end of the campaign, scoring his first brace for the club on 15 May in a 4?0 away victory over Burnley . [45] He finished his first year with seven goals, four of them coming in the final four fixtures. [46]

Rodrigo scored six times in the league in the 2021?22 campaign . [47] His team managed to stay up on the last matchday. [48]

On 28 January 2023, Rodrigo sustained a bone and ligament injury during a 3?1 win at Accrington Stanley in the fourth round of the FA Cup , [49] and was sidelined until his return as a 66th-minute replacement for Patrick Bamford in the 2?2 home draw with Brighton on 11 March. [50] [51] He went on to manage three more league goals for the remainder of the season , being Leeds' top scorer, but was stricken with injury again ? plantar fasciitis ? against West Ham , scoring in the 3?1 loss at London Stadium . [52]

Al-Rayyan [ edit ]

On 13 July 2023, Qatar Stars League club Al-Rayyan SC triggered a relegation release clause inserted into Rodrigo's Leeds contract, signing the player. [53]

International career [ edit ]

Rodrigo competed for Spain internationally, starting with the under-19s which he helped to the second position in the 2010 UEFA European Championship by netting two goals, including one in the final against France . He then appeared in the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup , helping the national team to the quarter-finals with his three goals.

Rodrigo made his debut for the Spanish under-21 side on 1 September 2011, scoring three times in Georgia in the 2013 European Championship qualifiers (7?2 rout). [54] On 21 March 2013, in a friendly against Norway , he scored his 13th goal in the category to help to the 5?2 victory in Toledo , thus becoming the highest goal scorer after surpassing Oscar Garcia 's record which had stood since 1992. [55]

Rodrigo was included in Spain's squad at the 2012 Summer Olympics , [56] appearing in two games in an eventual group stage exit in London. On 3 October 2014, he was one of 23 players selected by Vicente del Bosque for UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying matches against Slovakia and Luxembourg , [57] making his debut in the latter game by replacing Diego Costa in the 82nd minute and assisting the fourth and last goal for Juan Bernat . [58]

On 6 October 2017, nearly three years after his first cap , Rodrigo marked his second by starting and scoring the first goal in a 3?0 home defeat of Albania in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers , in Alicante . [59] He was then included in the squad for the finals in Russia, [60] making his debut in the competition on 20 June when he replaced Costa for the final minute of the 1?0 group stage win over Iran . [61]

Rodrigo was selected for the 2023 UEFA Nations League Finals . He started in the semi-final against Italy , but was an unused substitute in the final against Croatia , which Spain won on penalties. [62] [63] [64]

Personal life [ edit ]

Rodrigo moved to Spain at a young age when his father, Brazilian footballer Adalberto , opened a football school in Vigo alongside 1994 FIFA World Cup winner Mazinho . He is a lifelong friend of the latter's sons Thiago Alcantara and Rafinha , who were raised in footballing terms at FC Barcelona and also represented Spain and Brazil respectively, and was erroneously reported to be their cousin.
