Player Watch Player Watch: Cristian Romero

[Trix]

come on stoof it has been close for weeks mate.

At a guess I'd say Atalanta wanted a suitable replacement in first. Considering who that has turned out to be I would not be surprised if Fabio helped that come to pass. Again just theorising.

 

[spurslenny]

What news from flight radar (or whatever its called)?

Or is he walking here from Italy? (Would explain the 'getting closer' updates over the last few weeks)

 

[Dzejkob]

Looks like we can expect announcement today. Maybe he will even be on the bench on Sunday?

Needs to start on Sunday if he’s going to be ready for City/Wolves Imo. Can’t see him being ready for City, but needs a game before he‘s thrown in.

 

[paulbag]

Will he still have to isolate if hes been back in the atalanta football bubble since sunday and surely regularly tested for covid?

 

[YB123]

He is flying to UK tonight. I told you, the club love a Friday announcement.

Elite sportsman back at work now so I think they are exempt?

Aside from the fact we were first linked 17 days ago, totally agree

Is that really all it is?

 

[DJS]

Hopefully once we get him we’ll start pushing on with other signings as worrying how short we are in positions still.

So two weeks? Technically it is plural..

It really should have been 7+10 days.........rather than 7 to 10 days!

Dundee? Isn't that where the new assistant coach is from?

It looks like Leicester are going to have to go in for a centre back after Fofana's injury last night. Thankfully we seem to have Romero over the line but it could make things trickier for the next one we need...

Can see them signing someone like Lacroix and then in a years time we all say why didnt we buy him.

 

[paulbag]

Yea glad we got his deal sorted before fofanas injury feel sorry for the guy though horrible injury against us cost him the u21 championships now hes broken his leg on the eve of a new season quality defender too rate him if leicester somehow end up terrible and we get CL id try and nab him

We should probably just pile in to whoever they are after

 

[worcestersauce]

Can see them signing someone like Lacroix and then in a years time we all say wtf didnt we buy him.

They're welcome to someone like Lacroix just not Lacroix himself.

Had Anderson not have signed for palace, they’d have been all over that.
