Career edit

Aston Villa edit

Born in Leicester,[2] Rowe was named in the Aston Villa starting line-up for his senior debut on 8 January 2021 in an FA Cup third-round tie against Liverpool after "a large number of first-team players and staff" tested positive for COVID-19, rendering Villa's first-team squad unavailable for the match.[3][4] Villa exceeded expectations by losing just 4–1, with Rowe providing the assist for Louie Barry to score their only goal in the 41st minute.[5]

On 16 January 2021, Rowe joined Hereford in the National League North on loan for the rest of the season.[6][7] He made his Hereford debut on 20 January, in a 2–0 victory at Stamford in the FA Trophy.[8] On 18 February 2021, the National League North season was ended early, with the season being declared null & void - due to a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK.[9] Rowe stayed on loan with Hereford to take part in their FA Trophy campaign which was ongoing.[10] However, Rowe did not feature in the Hereford squad that lost the final 3–1 to Hornchurch at Wembley Stadium.[11]

On 4 June 2021, Rowe was released by Aston Villa.[12]

On 25 January 2022, Rowe returned to the National League South, joining Bath City on loan until the end of the season.[17] He made his Bath debut the same day as his transfer was announced, losing 4–0 to Hampton & Richmond Borough.[18] Rowe was released by Exeter at the end of the 2021–22 season following their promotion.[19]

Following his release from Exeter, Rowe began training with Scottish Championship team Dundee, and appeared in a pre-season friendly against Blackburn Rovers on 13 July 2022.[20]
