Norwich City

A youth product of Norwich City, Rowe signed his first professional contract with the club on 20 October 2021.[5]

He was nominated for the December 2021 Premier League 2 player of the month after some impressive performances for Norwich City's Under-23s. He made his professional debut with Norwich on 28 December 2021, coming on as a late substitute in the 68th minute in a 3–0 Premier League loss to Crystal Palace.[6]

His first-team breakthrough came at the beginning of the 2023–24 season, establishing himself through five goals in the first five games in all competitions.[7] These impressive performances saw him awarded the EFL Young Player of the Month award for August 2023.[8]

Rowe was awarded the Sky Bet Championship Goal of the Month in January for the goal he scored against Hull City on 11 January 2024.[9]

Rowe was shortlisted for the 2024 EFL Awards for EFL Championship Young Player of the Season alongside Archie Gray and Jordan James[10]

On 23 August 2024, Rowe joined Ligue 1 club Marseille on an initial season-long loan with an obligation to buy.[11][12]

In October 2023, Rowe received his first call-up to the England under-21 national team for two 2025 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifiers against Serbia and Ukraine.[13][14] He then made his debut for the Three Lions in the former game, on 12 October, coming on as a substitute for Liam Delap in the 69th minute;[15] he went on to score his first goal for the team, contributing to a 9–1 win.[15][16]
