José Luis Rodríguez Francis (born 19 June 1998), commonly known as Puma, is a Panamanian professional footballer who plays as a left winger for Serbian SuperLiga club Red Star Belgrade and the Panama national team.[2]

Personal life

Rodríguez grew up in El Chorrillo, Panama City and is the brother of retired Chorrillo captain Marcos Villarreal.[3] He was nicknamed "Cocobolo" at a young age for his short hair.[3]

Club career

Rodríguez played for hometown club Chorrillo in his youth.[3] In the 2015–16 season of the Liga Panameña de Fútbol, he made his debut on 17 July 2015 in a 0–1 away loss against Atlético Chiriquí.[2] His first and only goal of the season came on 2 April 2016 in a 3–2 away win against Alianza, scoring the winning goal for Chorrillo in the 90th minute.[4] In 2016, Rodríguez moved to the under-21 team of Belgium club Gent on loan with an option to buy.[5] [6] [7] On 9 December 2016, Gent signed Rodríguez on a permanent deal, with a contract lasting until 2019.[8] In September 2018 he signed for Croatian club Istra 1961.[9]

On 1 February 2019, Rodríguez joined Deportivo Alavés and would play for their B-team.[10] He made his first team – and La Liga – debut on 10 July of the following year, replacing Joselu in a 0–2 away loss against Real Madrid.[11]

On 4 September 2020, Rodríguez renewed his contract with Alavés until 2022,[12] and was immediately loaned to Segunda División side CD Lugo for the season.[13] On 30 July of the following year, he moved to fellow league team Sporting de Gijón also in a temporary deal.[14]

On 15 August 2022, Rodríguez signed a four-year contract with Primeira Liga side F.C. Famalicão.[15]

International career

Rodríguez was called up to the Panama under-17 team in 2014,[16] scoring on 3 March 2015 against Haiti in the 2015 CONCACAF U-17 Championship.[17]

On 14 May 2018, Rodríguez was included in Panama's preliminary squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the country's first ever FIFA World Cup.[18] Rodríguez made his international debut for Panama on 29 May 2018 in a 0–0 friendly home draw against Northern Ireland.[2] The following day, Rodríguez was included in Panama's final 23-man World Cup squad.[19]

Rodríguez made his World Cup debut in Panama's opening match on 18 June 2018 in a 0–3 loss to Belgium, starting the match before being substituted in the 63rd minute for Ismael Díaz.[20]
