Described as a calm and intelligent centre-back with leading abilities,[1] Rosted began his career in his native Norway and made the move to Belgian Gent in January 2018 before making the move to Brøndby one and a half years later. He won the Danish Superliga with Brøndby in 2021, before joining Toronto FC in Major League Soccer in January 2023.

Rosted is an international for Norway, receiving his first call-up in 2017 and gaining his first international cap in 2018 in a friendly against Albania, in which he also scored a goal.

In 2017, he was called up to the Norway national team for the first time in his career, as a replacement for injured Tore Reginiussen before the friendly match against Sweden on 13 June. He played his first international match on 26 March 2018 in a friendly against Albania, scoring the only goal in a 1–0 win. He had been substituted in for Håvard Nordtveit in the 63rd minute.
