In February, he started two of three games in the Algarve Tournament and then played in all three matches in the European U17 Championship Elite Qualifying Round, scoring against both Bosnia and Azerbaijan.

Danny Rose was involved in a 'tapping-up' controversy in 2006, when Chelsea allegedly made an illegal approach for three of Leeds' youth team. Tom Taiwo and Michael Woods both accepted offers from Chelsea, whereas Rose decided to stay at Leeds. Leeds chairman Ken Bates revealed he had made an official complaint to the FA regarding Chelsea's approaches. The situation was eventually resolved when Chelsea and Leeds United agreed an out-of-court settlement, believed to have resulted in Chelsea paying a sum of £4-5 million to Leeds.
