Early life
Born in
De Rosario began his professional career in 1997 at the age of 18, signing with the Toronto Lynx of the A-League. Halfway through the season, however, De Rosario signed with German side FSV Zwickau. After two seasons with Zwickau, De Rosario returned to North America, signing with the Richmond Kickers in 1999. After a slow 1999 season, in which he registered two goals and five assists, De Rosario scored fifteen goals and provided five assists while leading the team to a 20–6–1 record in 2000.

The next season, when Canadian
In December 2004 De Rosario had a trial with Nottingham Forest, but he was not offered a contract by the team.[10]
In 2005, following Landon Donovan's departure, De Rosario moved to midfield and promptly led MLS in assists with 13, while scoring nine goals, including the 2005 MLS Goal of the Year – the only player ever to receive that honour in two consecutive years – for a powerful bending free kick in the last regular season game against the Los Angeles Galaxy.[11] He was named to the MLS Best XI six times (2005–07, 2009–11).[9]
Houston Dynamo

Due to San Jose's failure to reach a stadium agreement with AEG, De Rosario, along with the rest of his Earthquakes teammates, moved to Houston for the 2006 season. During the 2006 MLS All-Star Game in Chicago, De Rosario scored the only goal of the game in the 70th minute to lift the MLS All Stars to a 1–0 win over Chelsea, a pre-season friendly for the London club. De Rosario was one of only four players on the MLS team to play the entire match.

De Rosario was traded to
De Rosario was expected to miss the first two to four weeks of Toronto FC's training camp due to a calf injury obtained in the January 31, 2010, match against Jamaica,[15] and returned to game action in Toronto's 1–0 preseason win versus the University of South Florida.[16]
On April 8, 2010, De Rosario was named captain of Toronto FC, the second in the club's history, after the retirement of Jim Brennan.[17] Two days later, De Rosario scored his first goal of the 2010 season, his team's first, in a 4–1 loss to the New England Revolution.[18]
On April 15, 2010, De Rosario scored twice in Toronto's 2–1 home opener win against the Philadelphia Union.[19] In his next game versus the Colorado Rapids, De Rosario scored his fourth goal of the season, and more importantly, became Toronto FC's all-time leading scorer in the regular season.[20] De Rosario again found the back of the net on April 25 in a 2–0 home win against Seattle Sounders FC, scoring the first goal, his fifth of the season. Until O'Brian White scored the second goal for Toronto, De Rosario had previously scored all of Toronto's goals up until that point in the season.[21] For his efforts in that game, he was awarded the MLS Player of the Week for week 5.[22] De Rosario was again honoured with the Player of the Week award on week 10 of the MLS season, for his two-goal performance against his former team the San Jose Earthquakes. De Rosario had scored the second and third goal in Toronto FC's 3–1 win.[23]
De Rosario continued to have a successful 2010 season for Toronto, culminating in a spot on the MLS All-Star team, scoring a goal in the 5–2 loss to Manchester United.[24]
On August 3, 2010, De Rosario scored against
On December 28, De Rosario was confirmed to be on trial with Scottish Premier League club Celtic by manager Neil Lennon.[26] Dwayne and Celtic inquired about the possibility of a short-term loan deal until the MLS season kicked off in March, however new Toronto FC coach Aron Winter and the league denied any further negotiations.[27]
De Rosario scored the first Toronto goal of the 2011 season on March 19 in a 4–2 away defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC in what was the league's first all Canadian match up. The goal scored in the 20th minute was also the 8000th goal scored in Major League Soccer's history.[28]
New York Red Bulls
New York Red Bulls acquired De Rosario on April 1, 2011, in exchange for midfielder Tony Tchani, defender Danleigh Borman and a first round 2012 MLS SuperDraft pick.[29] He scored his first goal for New York on a penalty, as the second goal, in a 3–2 loss to Chivas USA.[30]
D.C. United
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/de/De-rosario-union-rfk.jpg/130px-De-rosario-union-rfk.jpg)
D.C. United acquired De Rosario on June 27, 2011, in exchange for midfielder Dax McCarty.[31] He scored his first goal for the club against his former club New York Red Bulls on his return to Red Bull Arena. On July 30, 2011, his double gave United a 2–0 victory over former club, San Jose. On August 6, 2011, he led United to a 3–3 draw against Toronto F.C. with his hat-trick. All three goals were scored while United played with ten men following an early ejection of goalkeeper Bill Hamid. His second hat-trick was recorded on September 25, 2011, as he recorded all three goals in the span of 9 minutes, setting another MLS record.[32] De Rosario completed the season with a total of 16 goals and 12 assists over 32 games. Of those, 13 goals and 7 assists were made during his 17 games with United.[33]
On August 29, 2012, De Rosario scored his 100th MLS goal, in a 2–2 home draw against the Red Bulls. He was the seventh player to reach the milestone.[34]
Return to Toronto FC
After having his option declined by D.C. United, De Rosario returned to Toronto FC on December 18, 2013, after being chosen in the 2013 MLS Re-Entry Draft.[35] He officially signed with the club on January 9, 2014.[36] It was announced on December 3, 2014, that Toronto had declined the option to renew De Rosario's contract.[37]
Brief retirement
De Rosario announced his retirement on May 10, 2015, and that he would be taking an ambassador role with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment.[38]
Mississauga MetroStars
In October 2018 De Rosario came out of retirement to sign with the newly formed MASL club, the Mississauga MetroStars; he later scored his first goal for the club in the MetroStars's opening match, an 11–3 loss away to the Baltimore Blast.[39]
International career

In 2007, De Rosario won the male Canadian Player of the Year award making it three consecutive years receiving the honour. In 2007, he scored five goals in eight games, the most in a year for the CMNT since John Catliff in 1993.

In De Rosario's final appearance for Canada, he scored a goal in a 1–1 draw with Iceland on January 19, 2015.[44]
De Rosario was the country's all-time leading male goalscorer, with 22 international goals in 81 matches,[45][46] until Cyle Larin surpassed his record in 2022.[47]
Personal life
De Rosario adopted a strict vegan diet in 1994,[48] but started eating fish ten years later.[49] He is married to Brandy De Rosario and has four children,[49] including his sons Osaze and Adisa, who are also professional soccer players.[50] His cousin is Olympic hurdler Priscilla Lopes-Schliep.[51] He was appointed to the Order of Ontario in February 2020.[52] His autobiography 'DeRo: My Life', written with Brendan Dunlop was published in May 2021 by ECW Press.[53]
