Rodrguez is a product of the Peñarol youth program and made his debut in the professional ranks on March 28, 2018, in a league match against Danubio. He entered the game in place of Giovanni González in the 59th minute of what turned out to be a 1–1 tie between the two teams.

The Major League Soccer team Los Angeles FC made the announcement on the 7th of August, 2019, that they had signed Rodriguez as a young designated player for a club record cost of $11.5 million.

As part of the transaction, Almera was given the option to make the arrangement permanent when the loan period was through.
