- Rodríguez has been a free agent since December after leaving Club León and has been without a club since then, despite starring for Real Madrid and Bayern Munich with international honours.
- Signing Rodríguez could be the biggest signing in Minnesota United's history and revive the Loons' disappointing offseason, a source reported.
- The potential signing follows MLS's pattern of landing former European stars such as David Beckham, Lionel Messi, and Thomas Müller, adding another chapter to Rodríguez's nomadic career.
