Rodas started his career in 2002 with Argentina's Primera División club Newell's Old Boys. He made his senior debut in a 4-1 victory against Talleres de Córdoba and scored the fourth goal in the match, which made him the youngest player to score a goal in the Argentina's first division.
Rodas moved to Chinese Super League side Guizhou Renhe in January 2012.[1] He was deemed as the key player of Guizhou by the team manager Gao Hongbo and made his Super League debut on 10 March, in a 2-1 home victory against Shandong Luneng Taishan. However, Rodas and his family could not adapt their lives in Guiyang, and he found it hard to find a Spanish school for his children.[2] On 7 May, Rodas had his Guizhou Renhe contract terminated by mutual consent.[3]
Rodas returned to Peru's Torneo Descentralizado side León de Huánuco in July 2012.
