Club career

Rowe was born in Hackney, London, and spent the first part of his youth development at West Ham United, but moved to Southampton at under-16 level where he has excelled. Along with goalkeeper Will Britt, he signed his professional deal with Southampton on 1 July 2013.[2] He made his debut for the club in the Second Round of the League Cup against Barnsley on 27 August 2013, replacing Lloyd Isgrove in the 72nd minute of a 5–1 away win.[3]

At the start of the 2015–16 season, he joined Essex Senior League club Tower Hamlets on a part-time basis.[4][5] On 15 October 2015, Rowe joined National League South club Bishop's Stortford.[6] His contract with Bishop's Stortford was terminated in January 2016.[7] In February 2016, Rowe appeared for Woodford Town, making two league appearances, scoring twice against Wodson Park and Southall.[8][9][10]

In 2016, Rowe arrived in Cyprus, initially training with APOEL. Rowe began playing football at Cypriot Third Division club Ethnikos Latsion, before moving up a tier a year later to play for Ayia Napa. In 2018, Rowe signed for newly promoted Cypriot First Division club Enosis Neon Paralimni.[11]

He rejoined Ayia Napa in January 2019, making his second debut as a substitute in the 1–0 loss to Anagennisi Deryneia on 5 January.[12]

In summer 2019, Rowe returned to England and joined Hayes & Yeading United.[13]
