Juan Antonio Rodríguez Villamuela (born 1 April 1982) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Getafe CF as a defensive midfielder.

Football career

Born in Málaga, Andalusia, and grown through the ranks of Málaga CF, Rodríguez first played with the main squad early into the 2003–04 season, as a substitute against RCD Espanyol on 28 September 2003, ultimately appearing twice in that campaign and been mainly registered with the B-team. The next year he established himself in the main squad, becoming an undisputed starter subsequently and scoring five league goals in his first full season.

With Málaga relegated from La Liga in 2006, Rodríguez joined Deportivo de La Coruña after having been linked with the Galicians in the previous months, signing on 13 July 2006[1] in a deal which earned the player approximately €600.000 per season, a relatively lower amount compared to players previously operating in the same position at Depor: Roberto Acuña, Aldo Duscher and Lionel Scaloni.

Rodríguez was regularly played as starter during his spell with Deportivo, in various midfield positions (103 league games and six goals in his last three years combined). In late June 2011, following the club's top flight relegation, the 29-year-old signed as a free agent for Getafe CF, penning a four-year contract.[2]
