One-cap England international Rodriguez, who signed for Wrexham in the winter transfer window, has said in of trying to accomplish what has never been done: “It would mean everything. It's something that would go down in history and I think it's what this club deserves.
“I've obviously followed it from afar and it's been a great story to watch. Now to be a part of it, I feel very privileged to be a part of this group of lads, team, staff, the fans and this area. It's really important and I am really enjoying it. I'll always continue to work to my maximum.”

Rodriguez walked away from a Premier League promotion push at Burnley – who count NFL legend JJ Watt among their investors – in order to join Wrexham, but is convinced that he made the right decision in becoming another marquee addition for Reynolds and McElhenney.
