Liverpool
Academy and Reserves
Rossiter is a product of the Liverpool youth system. He is very highly rated at Kirkby and made his debut for the Under 18s as a 70th minute substitute in the 4-3 defeat to West Brom on 24 March 2012- his 15th birthday. Still aged just 15, Reserves coach Alex Inglethorpe called Rossiter up to the Under 19s side for the NextGen Series tie against holders Inter Milan on 8 January 2013. With Liverpool 4-1 up, Rossiter entered the action as a last-minute substitute, and almost slipped Samed Yesil through on goal with one of his first touches- though Yesil was called offside.Rossiter went on to feature quite prominently for the U18s during their 2012-13 season, racking up a total of 15 appearances, even taking the captain's armband for a number of games. His performances garnered much praise and he became recognised as one of the Academy's most exciting talents.
First Team
Rossiter was rewarded for his progress with a place on the substitute's bench for the Liverpool first team's away tie to Chelsea on 29 December 2013. He was again amongst the substitutes for the home game against Hull City but did not make it onto the pitch, leaving him still waiting for his first senior appearance. Although yet to feature, he has been given the number 46 shirt for the season.
