Rozental became Rangers' first South American player when he signed for £4 million on 13 December 1996, the most expensive signing in Chilean history.[4][5] He arrived at Rangers as a promising young talent, as he had broken into the Chile national team and was challenging Marcelo Salas and Iván Zamorano for a place in the starting eleven, following a decent scoring record at his club. He made his debut as a substitute in a league match at Motherwell.[6] However injury struck in his second appearance for Rangers versus St Johnstone in the Scottish Cup; he started the game well and scored his first goal for the club, but was then taken off with a knee injury.[7] He made three appearances in 1997–98[8] and another three in 1998–99.[9] He had his first significant run in the team in the second half of the 1999–2000 season, helping Rangers complete a league and cup double. He made 11 appearances and scored 3 goals in the league that season,[10] and scored twice in their cup semi final win over Ayr United.[11] He was however left out of the squad for the final. He made 21 appearances for Rangers, scoring 6 goals.
Late career
Rozental signed for the Columbus Crew on 13 January 2006.[12] His first goal as a Crew member came on a penalty kick on 15 April against the Chicago Fire. He played 20 games and scored 3 goals total during the 2006 season.
After spending one season with the Columbus Crew, Rozental got Israeli citizenship[13] and left for Israel and signed with Maccabi Petah Tikva. After failing to impress in one half season in Petah Tikva, Rozental signed a one-year contract with Maccabi Netanya.[14]
International career
Rozental has been capped for Chile 27 times scoring 2 goals. In addition, he played for Chile B against England B on February 10, 1998. Chile won by 2-1.[15]
