Juan Manuel Rosado Mojarro (born 24 April 1974), commonly known as Iván Rosado, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a striker.

Over the course of five seasons he amassed La Liga totals of 122 games and 26 goals, with Osasuna (six years in total). He also represented other four teams during his 16-year professional career, starting in 1992 with Recreativo.

Football career

Rosado was born in Huelva, Andalusia. After starting playing for local Recreativo de Huelva in the third division he moved for Rayo Vallecano for two seasons in the second level, promoting in his first year but only scoring twice in 20 league games in the process.

Rosado's most steady and fruitful period came with Pamplona's CA Osasuna: after being the team's top scorer in his first season with 11 goals, as they returned to La Liga after six years – whilst Recreativo was relegated – he repeated the feat the following campaign (at 14), helping the Navarrese barely avoid relegation and taking his tally in his first three top flight seasons to 25 goals, in 100 matches.

After an uneventful loan at Xerez CD, Rosado was released by Osasuna in June 2006. After nearly one year out of football, he moved to Málaga CF; during his one-and-a-half season spell he appeared scarcely, as the club returned to the top level in 2008.

Rosado moved to lowly UD Melilla in August 2008, but terminated his contract only a few months after, and retired from the game aged 34. In 11 years in the two major levels, he amassed totals of 239 games and 54 goals.
