Description

José Salomón Rondón Giménez (born 16 September 1989) is a Venezuelan professional footballer who plays as a striker for La Liga club Real Oviedo, on loan from Liga MX club Pachuca, and captains the Venezuela national team.

After starting out at Aragua, Rondón went on to spend most of his career in Europe, appearing in La Liga with Málaga, the Russian Premier League with Rubin Kazan, Zenit Saint Petersburg (winning the 2015 national championship with the latter club) and CSKA Moscow, and the Premier League with West Bromwich Albion, Newcastle United and Everton. In 2023, he returned to the Americas, as he signed for the Argentine club River Plate, winning the Argentine Primera División title before joining a Mexican club Pachuca, four days after his departure from the club. While in Pachuca, he won the CONCACAF Champions Cup in his debut season, as well as finishing as the top scorer in the tournament.

A Venezuela international since 2008, Rondón has earned over 110 caps and is the country's all-time top goalscorer with 47 goals. He represented his country in five Copa América tournaments, helping them to fourth place in 2011.
