PROFILE
 Right back Jon Otsemobor has been released by Liverpool at the
end of the 2004/05 season and joined League Two side Rotherham United.
Jon Otsemobor is a stylish attacking right back in the Phil Neal mould, and has
returned to Anfield in January 2005 after a successful three month loan spell at Crewe
Alexandra.
In 2003/04 season Otsemobor made a big impression on the Liverpool fans when he was
given a run in the team of five games and did really well. However in his fifth game he
was substituted by Gerard Houllier after 20 minutes in the 2-2 draw at Manchester City,
and was never seen again for the remainder of the season.
In a shock move Semi was loaned out to Bolton Wanderers but after playing just 45
minutes for the first team cut short that move to return to Liverpool.
It was in the summer of 2002 that Otsemobor moved down to Melwood to train with the
first team having been a regular in Hughie McAuley's under-19 side at the Academy.
An England youth international who is highly thought of by the club, Otsemobor is
exceptionally quick and reads the game very well.
He made his first team debut against Southampton in the third round of the
Worthington Cup in 2002 and made a good impression.
In March 2003 he was loaned out to Third Division Hull City in a move designed to
give him some much-needed experience of regular first team football.
Otsemobor signed a new long term deal with Liverpool in the summer of 2003 that is
expected to keep him at Anfield until at least the summer of 2005.
