PHOENIX, Arizona – Phoenix Rising FC has signed David Rodriguez on loan from Mexican first division side Atlético San Luis, pending league and federation approval, the club announced today.
The loan agreement for the 20-year-old younger brother of Rising’s Arturo Rodriguez runs through the end of Phoenix’s 2022 season.
“David will be another fantastic addition to our squad,” said Rising head coach Rick Schantz. “David is a wing that plays with very high energy. He is a very good one-one-one attacker with exceptional skill and quality in the final third. His work rate will fit well with our style. I’m excited to have David join his brother and help us push for the playoffs.”
Rodriguez began his career with Major League Soccer’s FC Dallas Academy in 2017. He scored 10 goals in 13 games for the U-16 team and was named to the 2018 Dallas Cup All-Star team by adidas.
