Diego Matías Rodríguez Marrón (Latin American Spanish: [ˈdjeɣo maˈti.as roˈðɾiɣes]; born 25 June 1989) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Godoy Cruz.

Club career

Born in Mar del Plata, Rodríguez made his debut in Independiente on 16 June 2011 against Huracán when coach Antonio Mohamed had to put him in the first team since Hilario Navarro, Fabián Assman and Adrián Gabbarini were all injured.[1]

Rodríguez subsequently represented Rosario Central, JEF United Chiba, Defensa y Justicia and Central Córdoba before joining La Liga side Elche CF on 5 October 2020.[2] He terminated his contract with the latter club on 1 February 2021, after just three cup matches.[3]

International career

Rodríguez was called up by coach Sergio Batista as part of the Argentina U-20 team for the 2009 South American U-20 Championship[4] He was a key player in the match against Ecuador that let the team advance to the second round where they were eventually eliminated.[5]
