Football career
Born in Valencia, Rodri started professionally with Albacete Balompie, but appeared very rarely with the first team, leaving precisely when it returned to La Liga in 2003 after a seven-year absence, to which he contributed by appearing in only six second division games.
Rodri subsequently established at CD Castellon, helping the club promote from the third level in his second year. Starting in 2007–08 he played three seasons with Hercules CF, in division two.
On 18 August 2010, after helping the Alicante side return to the top flight after a 13-year absence – 17 matches, but only six complete – Rodri moved to Gimnastic de Tarragona in the second level. In January 2013, aged 33, he rescinded his contract with the Catalans.
