editRosati's career began at Cisco Calcio Roma. He moved to Lecce in the 2002–03 season, making his first team debut in February 2005 in Lecce's 3–0 defeat of Chievo in Serie A.

Rosati was first choice for Lecce during the 2006–07 season and the successful 2007–08 Serie B campaign but only played four matches in 2008–09 when the team played in Serie A. The team was relegated back to the second division the following season and Rosati regained the first choice role after Francesco Benussi left the club. Lecce were promoted in first place.
