Hermannstadt
Roskopf joined Romania's Hermannstadt in 2019.[6][7] Roskopf was unable to appear for Hermannstadt in 2018–19 due to registration issues, after the club discovered he didn't have the required paperwork; with the forward subsequently applying for Italian citizenship whilst under contract.[8]
Rapid București
However, in May 2019, Roskopf signed an agreement to join newly promoted Liga II side Rapid București for 2019–20.[9][10][11] His bow arrived on 20 August in a 3–1 loss to Turris Turnu Măgurele, while his first goal came on 1 September versus CSM Reșița.[1] He departed after three goals in seventeen matches.[1]

In January 2020, Roskopf agreed a move to Cyprus with Apollon Limassol.[12] He appeared for his debut on 9 February against Enosis Neon Paralimni, participating for thirty-three minutes of a one-goal home defeat.[1] That was his sole appearance in the First Division, in a season that was curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic one month later.[1]
Universitatea Cluj
On 22 August, Roskopf sealed a return to Romanian football with Liga II outfit Universitatea Cluj.[13] After just one start from three appearances, he mutually terminated his contract on 1 November – with the Cluj-Napoca club claiming a return to Boca Juniors was in the pipeline, though that never materialized.[14]
Cavalry FC
On 30 December 2020, Roskopf signed with Canadian Premier League side Cavalry FC.[15] However, due to issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic preventing Roskopf from being able to join the team due to travel restrictions, they mutually agreed to terminate the contract on 15 April 2021 to allow Roskopf to join a new club.[16]
