($9.34 million), the German club confirmed on
Friday.
"Ricardo is a big talent. With Zurich he made his
name, he played a big role for them in the Europa
League and was also selected to the national
team," said Wolfsburg boss Felix Magath.

quality. This quality, he must establish and
develop."
Rodriguez, who was born to a Spanish father and
Chilean mother, has signed a contract with the
Bundesliga outfit that runs until 2016.
The 19-year-old will be joined at Wolfsburg by

Swiss rival Sion earlier in the month.
