## Career
### Aston Villa

Born in Leicester, Rowe was named in the Aston Villa starting line-up for his senior debut on 8 January 2021 in an FA Cup third-round tie against Liverpool after "a large number of first-team players and staff" tested positive for COVID-19, rendering Villa's first-team squad unavailable for the match. Villa exceeded expectations by losing just 4–1, with Rowe providing the assist for Louie Barry to score their only goal in the 41st minute.
On 16 January 2021, Rowe joined Hereford in the National League North on loan for the rest of the season. He made his Hereford debut on 20 January, in a 2–0 victory at Stamford in the FA Trophy. On 18 February 2021, the National League North season was ended early, with the season being declared null & void - due to a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK. Rowe stayed on loan with Hereford to take part in their FA Trophy campaign which was ongoing.
