Jordan Bernard Rossiter (born 24 March 1997) is an English footballer who plays as a midfielder for Rangers in the Scottish Premiership.
Rossiter came through the academy at his local club Liverpool where they described him as an "authoritative central midfield presence" with "an extensive passing repertoire with either foot and an eye for goal".
Rossiter was born in Liverpool, Merseyside and began playing football at the age of three or four in the Anfield junior league. He joined his local side Liverpool when he was 6 years old and first represented the academy at U6 level. He made his debut for Liverpool U18s on his 15th birthday. Still aged 15 he made his U19 debut side in a NextGen series match against Inter Milan, during the game ex-Liverpool striker Robbie Fowler said Rossiter was a talent comparable to Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard. For the 2013–14 season Rossiter, then 16, became a permanent fixture of Liverpool's U21 Premier League side and at the end of the season won Liverpool's Academy Player of the Year award. In September 2014, Rossiter was named as captain of Liverpool under-19s for the 2014–15 UEFA Youth League.
During the 2013–14 season Rossiter trained regularly with the first team squad and was named on the bench for the first time for a Premier League match against Chelsea on 29 December 2013. He also claimed a place on the bench in the New Years Day victory against Hull.
