Club career

Spain

Born in Seville, Andalusia, Brachi only played lower league football in his country, representing the reserve teams of both Real Betis and RCD Espanyol.[1]

He only competed two seasons in Segunda División B, being relegated in 2007–08 and 2009–10 with Espanyol B.[2]

Anorthosis / Videoton

In the summer of 2010, Brachi joined Anorthosis Famagusta FC on loan. His debut in professional football took place on 29 August, as he came on as a late substitute in a 3–2 away win against Alki Larnaca FC for the Cypriot First Division.

Subsequently, Brachi spent four years in Hungary at the service of Videoton FC, signing at the same time as compatriot Héctor Sánchez. He was regularly played by Paulo Sousa[3]– 39 matches in his first two years in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I combined – but, after his replacement with fellow Portuguese coach José Gomes, became a fringe player.

Brachi left Videoton on 30 June 2015.[4]

Domžale

Brachi signed for NK Domžale in January 2016, after responding to an advertisement from the Slovenian club posted on LinkedIn.[5]

Personal life

Brachi's father, Gabino Rodríguez, was also a footballer. He too played for Betis.[6]

gollark: And perhaps awful "handles" could be replaced with cool and trendy things like "streams".
gollark: Non-evil FS API ideas:- direct `write`/`read` access - no handles or handles emulated on top of this - either that or your thing can implement *either* handles *or* direct read/write and have the API translate it- no `fs.find`, `fs.combine`, `fs.complete`, `fs.getDir`, `fs.getName`- `mount`/`unmount`- per-file metadata
gollark: Well, actually, potatOS does support it, unless your handle happens to be to a virtualized file, at which point it'll just crash horribly somewhere.
gollark: Also you'll doom all VFS writers to an eternity of suffering.
gollark: Why would you use it?! PotatOS has no support.
