Federico Rose is the Dragons’ first summer signing ahead of the new season! The former 21-year-old forward of NŠ Mura and NK Tabor Sežana joins Ljubljana on a contract until June 30, 2029!
“I am extremely proud and excited to have joined the biggest club in Slovenia, a club that enjoys respect and recognition throughout Europe. I look forward to meeting and working with my new teammates, the coaching staff, and of course, the fans. This is an important step in my career, and I am grateful for the trust the club has shown in me. On the pitch, I will give my all and work hard every day to help the team achieve its goals and reach the desired success together,” Rose said upon signing the agreement.
Born in Canada, his mother is from Argentina, and his father is from Jamaica. He has family roots in Croatia, which is why he also holds Croatian citizenship, and recently acquired Spanish citizenship. He grew up first in Toronto, then moved to Buenos Aires, where he developed his football skills in the youth academy of Vélez Sarsfield.
His football journey then led him to Cyprus, to the Pafos youth team, from where he transferred to Sežana in 2024. Playing for Tabor in the 2. SNL, he drew attention with his effective performances and 17 goals, which opened the door to the Prva Liga Telemach. Six months ago, he joined Mura, and now he continues his career in the capital, where he will wear the number 11 on his back.
