Ben Rosen has been brought in as Blackburn Rovers' new Performance Director, to work alongside Head Coach Jon Dahl Tomasson at Ewood Park.

So it turned out, Rosen was poached by FC Copenhagen in September 2020 to become their Head of Fitness and Conditioning. Rosen now speaks fluent Swedish, but has always coached his group sessions in English. Åge Hareide - former Norway manager - was the one to bring Rosen in and he placed a huge amount of trust in him. Åge also allowed Rosen to implement GPS over in Sweden for the first time, while bringing a local restaurant on board to provide full catering for the team.
