Having joined Manchester United's academy at the age of six, Rothwell signed professional terms with the club in the summer of 2013.[2] On 26 July 2011, he scored twice in a 7–0 win over County Tyrone in the Milk Cup.[3] He was named as a substitute for a first-team game against Watford in March 2016.[4]

Barnsley (loan)

On 18 July 2015, Rothwell joined League One side Barnsley on a six-month loan.[9] He played four League games (two as a substitute) and made one appearance in the opening round of the Football League Trophy,[10] a competition Barnsley ultimately won, beating Oxford United.[11]
