Eduardo Rodríguez Fernández (born 8 June 1966) is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a striker.
He is Hércules league's all-time top scorer and played professionally for 13 years, in representation of five clubs.
Club career
Born in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Cádiz, Andalusia, Rodríguez arrived at Real Betis at the age of 17. During his eight-year link with the club he would only appear in seven La Liga games – six coming in the 1988–89 season under the guidance of Eusebio Ríos, who was sacked after the 13th round – also being loaned twice, successively to Recreativo de Huelva and CD Badajoz, helping the latter win the Segunda División B championship, albeit without promotion.
Rodríguez signed for Hércules CF in the 1991 summer, being instrumental as the team returned to Segunda División in his second year, with 32 goals scored. After netting four times in as many games into the 1993–94 campaign, he returned to the top level with Rayo Vallecano, signing for €300.000;[1] he only managed to score once during the season, and the Madrid outskirts side suffered relegation.
After helping Rayo immediately regain its lost status, Rodríguez returned to Hércules and achieved the same feat, scoring 14 goals in 30 games as the Alicante team returned to the top flight. He only added one, however, one in the following season – in a 3–2 away win against FC Barcelona on 13 January 1997 – with his team being eventually relegated.
Rodríguez retired from football in June 1998 at the age of 32. After briefly working with main club Hércules in directorial capacities, he lost all connection to the football world, remaining in Alicante.
