Kevin Rodríguez

Kevin Rodríguez of Union Saint-Gilloise was born in Ibarra, Ecuador on 4 March 2000 (age 26).

Kevin Rodríguez, born on 4 March 2000 (age 26), is an Ecuadorian striker whose senior career has been shaped mainly at Union Saint-Gilloise. An imposing 6ft 3in (1.90m) forward, he has given the Belgian side a regular attacking presence rather than a passing cameo.

Across four league seasons with Union, Rodríguez has made 60 league appearances and scored 13 goals. His best return came in 2025-26, when he scored eight times in 21 league matches, the clearest marker of his progress at club level.

He remains part of the first-team picture in 2026-27. Rodríguez has made 21 appearances in all competitions for Union Saint-Gilloise this season, scoring three goals, with involvement across the league, European qualifiers, Europa League and domestic play-offs.

At international level, he has also been used by Ecuador, with four World Cup appearances and 16 South American World Cup qualifying appearances, scoring once in qualifying.

Rodríguez’s career to this point is straightforward: an Ecuadorian striker established at Union Saint-Gilloise, still involved regularly, and with enough international exposure to keep him more than a domestic-level name.
