Danny Rose (footballer, born 1990)

Daniel Lee Rose (born 2 July 1990) is an English former professional footballer who played as a left-back. He was known for his tendency to play attacking football, with particular focus placed on his speed, decision-making, and defensive abilities, all of which often had him likened to Tottenham Hotspur legend Cyril Knowles.

Rose started his professional career at Leeds United in 2006, having progressed through the club's youth ranks, but left for Tottenham Hotspur in July 2007 before making an appearance. Following various loans to Watford, Peterborough United, Bristol City, and Sunderland, he established himself as a first-team player at Tottenham over the next six seasons, as well as starting in the 2019 UEFA Champions League final. Following a brief loan to Newcastle United in 2020, he departed Tottenham in June 2021, and subsequently returned to Watford for a season.

Rose played for England at the under-17 and under-19 levels before making his under-21 debut in 2009. In March 2016, he earned his first senior England cap in a 3–2 victory against Germany. He was then included in the squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
