Giuseppe Rossi
Giuseppe Rossi (born February 1, 1987 in New Jersey) is an Italian-American soccer player. He plays for the English side Manchester United.
Rossi signed for Manchester United on July 7, 2004 from the Italian side Parma A.C. for a small fee. He has represented the Italian national team at under-19 level and is considered a bright prospect. Naturally left sided, but gifted with both feet, he usually plays in an attacking midfielder role and has impressed in that position for United's reserves.
Like many United youngsters, Rossi made his first-team debut in the English League Cup, coming on as a substitute in the 2-0 win over Crystal Palace F.C. on November 10, 2004. He has yet to start a game for the first team, though his chance may come when Paul Scholes retires.
