Early career

Born in the Netherlands to parents from the Dominican Republic, Rosario began his football career in the youth ranks of AVV Swift, followed by a brief stint with Feyenoord, before joining his local club DWS. In 2012 Dutch broadcasting company HUMAN released the documentary film The Price of Heaven which follows Rosario from the period in which he captained the under-13 squad of DWS.[1][2]

Having been sensationalized as the next Ronaldo by the media, Rosario is confronted with the choice of joining the youth academies of either Ajax, Feyenoord or PSV, the top three clubs in the country. Rosario eventually decided for Ajax and in 2010 he joined the B2 squad (under-16) under coach Orlando Trustfull.[3]

Almere City

In 2014 Rosario transferred to Ajax's partner club Almere City. On 7 August 2015, he made his debut for the first team in the Eerste Divisie, the second tier of professional football in the Netherlands, in a 3–3 draw at home against VVV-Venlo. He was subbed on by head coach Maarten Stekelenburg in the 59th minute for Soufyan Ahannach.[4]
