Jay Enrique Rodriguez (born 29 July 1989) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for EFL Championship club Wrexham.

Rodriguez began his career with his hometown club Burnley, for whom he scored 41 goals in 128 appearances across all competitions from his debut in 2007. In 2012, he joined Southampton for around £7 million, where his form earned him his only England cap, but shortly thereafter he missed over a year with injury.

In 2017, Rodriguez joined West Bromwich Albion for a fee of £12 million. Two years later, he returned to Burnley, where he played four further Premier League seasons, and also won the Championship in 2022–23.
