Athletic career

Rossano joined Juventus Turin in 1959 via Pordenone Calcio . Although the team coached by Renato Cesarini won the double , the midfielder only played one competitive game in Serie A during the 1959/60 season . Nevertheless, in the summer of 1960 he was part of the Italian Olympic selection, which lost the semi-finals at the Olympic Games in their own country by drawing lots and ultimately missed a medal as fourth in the tournament. Among other things, he was used in the game for third place against Hungary , he scored a total of four tournament goals.

Following the tournament, Juventus loaned Rossano to league rivals AS Bari , for whom he played 26 league games. Despite his four goals this season, the club rose to Serie B at the end of the season . After his return to Juventus, he was again only reserve player over long distances, so that he in the Serie A champions for 1962 AC Milan moved. However, he was denied the big breakthrough here as well, when he won the European Cup in 1962/63 under coach Nereo Rocco only at the beginning of the competition - in the first round match against Union Luxemburg he scored two goals in a 6-0 away win.

Rossano moved to Serie B for Varese FC in 1963 . Although he rose at the end of the season with the club in the first division, he moved within the second division to US Palermo . He then left his active career at the amateur club AC Chieri , in which he had scored five goals in 40 first division games, to end.
