==
Born in [[Seravezza]], in the [[Province of Lucca]], Rossi started playing football with [[A.S. Lucchese-Libertas|Lucchese]] in [[Serie B]], moving for the [[1998–99 Serie A|1998–99 campaign]] to [[Salernitana Calcio 1919|Salernitana]], newly promoted to [[Serie A]]. After two seasons he joined [[ACF Fiorentina|A.C. Fiorentina]] (for 17 billion [[Italian lira|lire]]; €8.78 million in cash plus [[Lorenzo Collacchioni|player]] deal<ref>A.C. Fiorentina S.p.A. ''bilancio'' (financial report and accounts) on 30 June 2001 (in Italian), [http://www.registroimprese.it PDF purchased from Italian C.C.I.A.A.]</ref>) and returned to the top division, remaining in [[Florence]] for two years.

In 2002 Rossi left Fiorentina due to unpaid wages (the club declared bankruptcy shortly after) and signed with modest [[Calcio Como|Como]], appearing sparingly in [[2002–03 Serie A|his first season and being relegated from the top flight]].

===Genoa===
In [[2003–04 Serie B|2003–04]] Rossi joined [[Genoa C.F.C.]] in the second level, on loan, being an instrumental figure from the start and scoring a career-best eight goals in his first year. He then returned to Como, but returned to his previous club in the 2005 January [[transfer window]] after his contract expired.
Genoa was initially promoted at the end of [[2004–05 Serie B|the season]], as champions, but suffered relegation to [[Lega Pro Prima Divisione|Serie C1]] instead, with Rossi remaining with the team, which achieved promotion in 2006. In the [[2006–07 Serie B|2006–07 campaign]] he became [[Captain (association football)|club captain]], and the club returned to division one alongside [[Juventus F.C.|Juventus FC]], under manager [[Gian Piero Gasperini]]. The player's versatility – he was capable of producing as either a [[Defender (association football)|defender]] or a midfielder, on either side – made him an undisputed starter, and he contributed to that promotion with three goals.
On 30 March 2008, in a league game against [[Reggina Calcio]], Rossi scored his second goal in the top level, closing the score in the 90th minute (2–0, at home). He only missed four games as the club finally [[2007–08 Serie A|finished tenth]].
Although he appeared less in the [[2008–09 Serie A|2008–09 season]], Rossi netted on five occasions. On 28 November 2009, during the 101st ''[[Derby della Lanterna]]'', against [[U.C. Sampdoria]], he scored the second goal, in an eventual 3–0 home win;<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20121026074454/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/278379?cc=5739 Genoa 3–0 Sampdoria]; [[ESPN Soccernet]], 28 November 2009</ref> in February of the following year, he scored against [[A.C. Chievo Verona]] (the game's only) and added two the following week at Juventus, albeit in a 2–3 away defeat.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20121026074504/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report/_/id/278463?cc=5739 Del Piero's disputed spot-kick]; ESPN Soccernet, 14 February 2010</ref>
Rossi retired from football at the end of the [[2012–13 Serie A|2012–13 campaign]], aged 35. He was immediately appointed Genoa's [[director of football]].<ref>[http://www.football-italia.net/36851/rossi-hangs-genoa-boots Rossi hangs up Genoa boots]; Football Italia, 27 July 2013</ref>
==International career==
