Sporting KC

Rosell signed with Sporting Kansas City of Major League Soccer in August 2012,[2] being given the number 20 and wearing "Uri" as his jersey name. He thus became the second player to graduate from Barcelona's La Masia and play in MLS, after Albert Celades.[3]

In just his second appearance for the team, Rosell scored a game-winning goal against Toronto FC on 1 September 2012, netting in the 87th minute of a 2–1 home win.[4]

Sporting CP

On 3 June 2014, Kansas City and Sporting Clube de Portugal agreed to a transfer for Rosell. As per MLS rules, the terms of the deal were not disclosed.[5]

Sporting KC

On April 1st it was rumored that Rosell is coming back to Kansas City as a Designated Player replacing Claudio Bieler's spot and would be able to play in the next game.

International career

In December 2013, Rosell was called up by the unofficial Catalonia national team for its friendly match against Cape Verde at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona on the 30th.[6] He entered the pitch as a 68th-minute substitute for Real Valladolid's Marc Valiente,[7] and lined up with Barcelona players Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Cesc Fàbregas and Gerard Piqué as the side came from behind to win it 4–1.[8]
