Club career
Born in Pamplona, Navarre, Ros played his youth football with Real Sociedad. Being signed at the age of only 12, he travelled regularly by taxi from Tudela to the club's training facilities, until eventually moving to a school in San Sebastian. He made his senior debuts in the 2008–09 season, appearing for the reserves in Segunda Division B and suffering team relegation.
On 23 May 2009 Ros made his first appearance for the first team, coming on as a substitute for another club youth graduate, Markel Bergara, in the early stages of a 1–0 away win against UD Salamanca. As the Basque had no chance to promote from Segunda Division from that moment onwards, he started in the last four games of the campaign, renewing his contract until 2014 at its closure.
In late January 2010 Ros was loaned to neighbouring SD Eibar in the third level. Subsequently he returned to Real Sociedad, going on to be a very important midfield unit for the B's during two full seasons, still in division three.
On 19 August 2012 Ros made his first appearance in La Liga, playing 12 minutes in a 1–5 loss at FC Barcelona. He finished his first season with the main squad with just seven official appearances, totalling 161 minutes of action.
Ros scored his first goal for Real Sociedad on 18 December 2013, opening the scoring in a 4–0 home routing of Algeciras CF for the campaign's Copa del Rey (5–1 on aggregate). His second came on 16 January of the following year for the same competition, as he netted the only in the tie against Villarreal CF to qualify his team to the quarterfinals.
On 19 July 2014, Ros joined second level club RCD Mallorca on a free transfer, signing a two-year contract.
Personal life
Ros was the fifth of seven brothers and sisters, Mikel being his twin. His older sibling Inigo was also a footballer and a midfielder, spending the vast majority of his professional career in the third division and also representing Real Sociedad B and Eibar.
