Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Cotia, São Paulo, Rodrigo began his career with hometown side Cotia FC [pt], and subsequently played with the youth sides of Tanabi and Taboão da Serra.[1] He made his senior debut with the latter on 19 April 2015, starting in a 0–0 Campeonato Paulista Segunda Divisão away draw against Jabaquara.

Rodrigo scored his first senior goal on 8 August 2015, netting his team's second in a 4–3 away win over Guarulhos. A regular starter for CATS, he signed for Batatais in February 2016, after a short period on trial with Santos' B-team.[2]

In January 2017, Rodrigo signed for Série C side Mogi Mirim,[3] being a first-choice during the year as the club suffered relegation. On 5 December, he was announced in the squad of Cuiabá for the upcoming season.[4]

After featuring rarely for Dourado, Rodrigo moved to Guarani de Palhoça in June 2018. In September, however, he signed for Ituano.[5]

Marcílio Dias

[edit]

In November 2018, Marcílio Dias announced the loan of Rodrigo for the 2019 season.[6] In January 2019, after just two matches, he suffered a knee injury which sidelined him for the remainder of the campaign.[7]

In January 2020, now fully recovered, Rodrigo signed a permanent contract with Marcílio.[8] On 13 May 2020, after establishing himself as a regular starter, he renewed his contract with the club until 2021.[9]

Loan to Brasil de Pelotas

[edit]

On 6 August 2020, Rodrigo was loaned to Série B side Brasil de Pelotas until the end of the year.[10] He made his debut in the category the following day, coming on as a second-half substitute for Bruno Matias in a 0–0 away draw against former side Cuiabá.[11]

Rodrigo scored his first goal for Xavante on 26 September 2020, netting the equalizer in a 1–1 home draw against Paraná, and finished the season with 29 appearances.

Loan to Botafogo-SP

[edit]

On 18 February 2021, Rodrigo was presented at third division side Botafogo-SP on loan for the year.[12] A regular starter, he departed Bota on 2 December, as his loan was due to expire.[13]

Mirassol

[edit]

On 9 December 2021, Rodrigo was presented at Mirassol for the upcoming campaign.[14] He started in all 11 appearances in the 2022 Campeonato Paulista, only missing one match due to suspension.[15]

Loan to Grêmio

[edit]

On 29 March 2022, Grêmio announced the signing of Rodrigo on a loan deal until December.[16] Despite featuring more than Edílson and Leonardo Gomes as the club achieved promotion to the Série A, all three were deemed surplus to requirements for the 2023 season.[17]

In December 2022, after Rodrigo suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury, his loan contract was extended to cover his recovery.[18] In August 2023, now fully recovered, he left the club.[19]

Return from loan

[edit]

Mirassol announced Rodrigo's return on 3 August 2023,[20] but only returned to action on 22 September, in a 3–0 away win over Ponte Preta. Despite featuring in only five matches upon returning, he began the 2024 campaign as an undisputed starter.

Santos

[edit]

On 5 March 2024, Santos announced the signing of Rodrigo on a two-year contract.[21] He made his debut for the club on 19 April, replacing Hayner at half-time in a 2–0 home win over Paysandu.
