Oskar Rosenblatt signs first senior contract!
Chester FC are delighted to announce that Oskar Rosenblatt has signed his first senior deal at the Deva Stadium!
The exciting young forward, who turned 18 earlier this week, has put pen to paper until the end of the 2025/26 season having already made his senior debut in the FA Cup back in September against Hebburn Town.
Oskar joined the Blues as a scholar in 2023 from Fleetwood Town and was a part of several matchday squads from the age of 16.
He has consistently impressed within the Academy setup, as well as being integrated into the First Team squad, scoring his first senior goal last summer in our win over Lancaster City during the Isle of Man Festival of Football.
Manager Calum McIntyre said: “Oskar is another off the successful production line within our Academy programme and it is fantastic to see him sign a senior contract with us.
“The current first team squad includes a number of Academy Graduates and it is always great for supporters to have homegrown players representing their club. This is alongside the significant number of players that have moved up the pyramid for transfer fees.
“The Academy continues to be a huge success story, and I would like to congratulate all the Coaches within the system for their contribution to this success.
“Oskar has obviously been included in a number of First Team squads this season and is someone that has earnt the respect of the players and staff alike. I look forward to seeing how he progresses in this next stage of his development.”
Academy Head Coach and First Team Coach Mike Allcock said: “Since joining us from Fleetwood two years ago, Oskar has been a fantastic addition to the club. His attitude, dedication to his development, and commitment to Chester FC have been exemplary from day one.
“As a forward, Oskar combines power and pace with a strong tactical awareness. His ability to deliver quality from set pieces, along with his threat from open play crosses, makes him a valuable asset on the pitch.
“Over the past 12 months, Oskar has been training regularly with the senior squad, where he has built strong relationships with both the staff and his teammates. His professionalism and willingness to learn have stood out throughout.
“It has been a real pleasure working with Oskar during his time here. He is a fantastic young man with a bright future in the game, and we are proud that he is beginning his professional journey with Chester FC.
“We wish him every success in the next chapter of his career. Good luck, Oskar!”
From everyone at Chester FC – congratulations, Oskar!
