Alex Jason Brosque ({{IPA|es|ˈaleɣs ˈβɾoske}};In isolation, Brosque is pronounced {{IPA|es|ˈbɾoske|}}. born 12 October 1983) is an Australian former professional soccer player{{cite web|title=Brosque getting off on right foot with Stallions before horse trading in Europe|url=http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/02/20/1045638420038.html|website=The Sydney Morning Herald|date=21 February 2003|access-date=16 January 2016}} who was the captain of A-League club Sydney FC.{{cite web|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-10-08/alex-brosque-named-sydney-fc-captain/5799182?section=sport|publisher=ABC|title=Sydney FC names Alex Brosque captain for the 2014/15 A-League season|date=8 October 2014}} He played primarily as a striker but played predominantly as a midfielder in central midfield during his time in Japan.
Club career
Brosque was born in Sydney, Australia, to Uruguayan parents, who migrated to Australia in the 70s.{{Cite web|date=2018-10-28|title='This is bigger than football' by Alex Brosque|url=https://www.athletesvoice.com.au/alex-brosque-bigger-than-football/|access-date=2020-12-30|website=AthletesVoice|language=en-US}}
In 2001 Brosque, aged 18, began his career playing for Marconi Stallions in the now-defunct National Soccer League. In three seasons at the club he made over 50 appearances and was considered one of Australia's best prospects having been voted NSL Under-21 Player of the Year for consecutive seasons in 2003 and 2004.
His form at club and international level attracted international attention, and after the conclusion of the 03-04 NSL season Brosque signed for Dutch club Feyenoord Rotterdam. He was immediately loaned out to Belgian club Westerlo where he struggled due to an ankle injury, making only sixteen appearances and scoring two goals.
= Brisbane Roar =
With the creation of the new A-League Brosque returned to Australia, signing for Brisbane Roar. Brosque, along with his team, struggled in front of goal for much of the 2005–06 season (at one point Brisbane led the league in total shots but was second last in goals scored{{cite news|url=http://www.a-league.com.au/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=2752&pageid=15 |title=Looking Ahead – Brisbane Roar |date=20 December 2005 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060531095009/http://www.a-league.com.au/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=2752&pageid=15 |archive-date=31 May 2006 }}) before scoring four times in the last three games of the season to nearly take his team to the A-League semi finals. Brosque won the inaugural Reebok Golden Boot along with Stewart Petrie, Archie Thompson and Bobby Despotovski with 8 goals.
= Sydney FC =
On 11 February 2006 Alex Brosque announced his move to then champions Sydney FC.{{cite news|url=http://newtwg.sbs.com.au/a-league/index.php?pid=st&cid=67920§ion=st&tid=147 |title=Brosque confirms Sydney move |date=11 February 2006 }}{{dead link|date=June 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} He joined the club for the A-League 2006-07 season on a three-year contract. Brosque played his first game for Sydney against his former club Queensland Roar in the Pre-season cup on 15 July 2006, setting up the first goal before scoring the match-winner in Sydney's 2–1 victory. He scored his first A-League goal for Sydney FC against Perth Glory in round 17. Brosque scored in the 1–1 draw that got Sydney FC into the 2006–2007 finals series against his old club the Roar which knocked them out in the process.
After a disappointing first year at Sydney FC, Brosque discovered some of his best form and was the leading goal scorer for Sydney FC with 8 in the regular season. He scored two crucial braces against Perth Glory and Central Coast Mariners which gained Sydney some valuable points during the season. His partnership with Juninho Paulista was evident during the season, with 5 of his goals coming from the Brazilian's killer passes.
Brosque also scored 2 of the 5 goals scored by Sydney against Los Angeles Galaxy at Telstra Stadium in November 2007. At the end of the 2007/2008 season he became Sydney's highest goalscorer, with 11 goals (including the games against Los Angeles Galaxy) for the season.
Brosque continued to be a regular for Sydney FC entering into his third season with the club. He scored his first goal of the 08/09 season in Sydney's 5–2 demolition of Perth Glory, taking his tally to 13 – making him Sydney's 2nd highest goalscorer behind former captain Steve Corica on 15. He scored his next goal a fortnight later against Adelaide United in Sydney's 3–0 win, taking him to within a goal of being Sydney's highest goalscorer. Brosque led the Hyundai A-League with 7 assists in the 08/09 season.
Brosque started the 09/10 season impressively forming a strong partnership with Mark Bridge in the forward line. These performances saw Brosque rewarded with a recall to the Socceroos for the first time in over four years. On 22 July 2010, Brosque signed a three-year contract extension with Sydney FC, keeping him at the club until the end of the 2013–14 season.{{cite web|url=http://www.sydneyfc.com/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=34298 |title=Sky Blue elation: Brosque signs on for three more |date=22 July 2010 |publisher=Sydney FC |access-date=22 July 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110225174227/http://www.sydneyfc.com/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=34298 |archive-date=25 February 2011 }}
Brosque was capped in his 100th game for Sydney FC during the Round 14 game against Perth Glory at Parramatta Stadium. Sydney would go on to win 2–0, with Brosque scoring his 29th goal to seal the victory for the Sky Blues.{{cite news|url=http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-sport/brosque-helps-sydney-to-20-win-over-perth-20101121-182fm.html|title=Brosque helps Sydney to 2–0 win over Perth|date=21 November 2010|newspaper=The Sydney Morning Herald|access-date=28 November 2010}}

On 31 January 2011, Sydney FC agreed to release Brosque for $400,000 to join Shimizu S-Pulse, however Sydney FC vice chairman Scott Barlow announced Sydney was considering its options as to filing a complaint with FIFA, for the club believed Shimizu S-Pulse approached Brosque without the club's permission.{{cite web |url=http://abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/01/31/3126174.htm?site=sport§ion=all|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110628232414/http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/01/31/3126174.htm?site=sport§ion=all|url-status=dead|archive-date=28 June 2011|title=Brosque allowed to leave Sydney FC|date=31 January 2011|publisher= Australian Broadcasting Corporation|access-date=31 January 2011}} Alex made his debut for his new club on 5 March 2011, playing a full game in the 3–0 loss to Kashiwa Reysol, the club's first match of the 2011 J-league Season{{cite magazine|url=http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/198090,kennedy-to-the-rescue.aspx|title=Josh Rescues J.League Cham|date=6 March 2011|magazine=FourFourTwo|access-date=6 March 2011|archive-date=11 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711021912/http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/198090,kennedy-to-the-rescue.aspx|url-status=dead}} Brosque scored his first goal for the club on 7 May 2011, scoring in the 18th minute to help his side claim a one-all draw against Nagoya Grampus.{{cite magazine|url=http://au.fourfourtwo.com/News/203396,brosque-nets-first-in-japan.aspx|title=Brosque Nets First in Japan|date=8 May 2011|magazine=FourFourTwo|access-date=18 June 2011|archive-date=11 May 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110511103158/http://au.fourfourtwo.com/News/203396,brosque-nets-first-in-japan.aspx|url-status=dead}}

International career
Brosque represented Australia at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship where they reached the second round. In 2004, Brosque made his senior international debut for Australia against Fiji in the OFC Nations Cup, where he made three appearances. Later in that year he also helped Australia reach the quarter finals at the 2004 Olympics.
On 9 November 2009, Brosque was called up to the senior national team as an injury replacement for Joshua Kennedy. It was his first call up for over 3 years. On 9 October, Brosque came off the bench in the 90th minute to replace Richard Garcia in the friendly match against Paraguay.{{cite web|url=http://www.smh.com.au/news/sport/football/2009/11/09/1257614994907.html|title=Shock Socceroo call-up for Sydney FC's Alex Brosque - Football - Sport|website=The Sydney Morning Herald|date=9 November 2009}}
On 15 December 2010, Brosque was selected in the preliminary 50-man squad for the 2011 Asian Cup in January. Many people believed that he would be selected in the final 23-man squad, after Joshua Kennedy and Archie Thompson were both injured, but Brosque was then ruled out with an injury himself, costing him a chance to represent Australia for the first time in an international competition. On 2 September 2011, Brosque scored the winner in the 86th minute in Australia's 2–1 win over Thailand for the 2014 World Cup Qualifiers. A month later, on 7 October, Brosque scored a double in Australia's 5–0 win over Malaysia in a friendly match in Canberra. In Australia's 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Saudi Arabia, Brosque scored another brace to help Australia win 4–2.
