Rhode Island FC has continued to add to its roster ahead of the 2026 USL Championship season by acquiring Agustín Rodríguez on loan from Club Atlético Lanús in Argentina.
Pity began his professional career with Lanús in 2021, making 28 appearances for the club across all competitions in five seasons. During that span he scored one goal and two assists. The midfielder has also featured in 32 appearances for the club’s reserve side, Lanús II, where he scored five goals.
“Agustín is a young and exciting attacking player with a high-level soccer education and background,” Rhode Island FC head coach and general manager Khano Smith said in a statement. “Players of his profile have had real success in our league. We look forward to him adding an extra dimension to our attack.”
In 2025, he spent the back half of the year on a brief loan stint with Cypriot First Division club Anorthosis Famagusta, where he made four appearances. At the international level, Pity has made six appearances for the Argentina U20 National Team.
Rodríguez is currently the seventh midfielder on the 2026 roster. Rhode Island will be hoping that his technical skill will see him make an immediate impact, as Rhode Island will look to finally get over the hump and appear in the USL Championship final.
