Born in Terrassa, Barcelona, Catalonia, Rodríguez started his career at local club RCD Espanyol. In the summer of 2010 he joined Italian side Cesena, and made his first-team – and Serie A – debut on 7 November 2010, playing the last 13 minutes of a 1–3 loss at Juventus. He spent the vast majority of the season with the reserves, however.
In July 2011, Rodríguez moved to Pavia in a season-long loan deal.{{cite news|url=http://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/legapro/?action=read&idnet=dHV0dG9sZWdhcHJvLmNvbS0zMTcwMg |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130204235917/http://www.tuttomercatoweb.com/legapro/?action=read&idnet=dHV0dG9sZWdhcHJvLmNvbS0zMTcwMg |url-status=dead |archive-date=4 February 2013 |title=ESCLUSIVA TLP EXECUTIVE - Pavia, in attacco si potrebbe parlare spagnolo |date=14 July 2011 |accessdate=25 August 2012 |publisher=Tutto Lega Pro |language=Italian }} After playing regularly for the side he returned to Cesena, and netted his first goal for the club on 30 October 2012, scoring a last-minute 3–2 winner against Grosseto at Stadio Dino Manuzzi.
