Arsenal are looking to revive the deal to bring in the teen, dubbed as the “next Messi” into the Emirates after the deal fell apart last summer due to the player’s injury.
According to the Daily Mirror, a deal of £4.5 million was already agreed between Arsenal and Velez Sarsfield, however the knee injury stopped the deal from proceeding further, and now Arsene Wenger is ready to revive the deal provided Romero’s fitness report is satisfactory.
With Arsene Wenger’s reputation of developing young talent into whole players, the teenager is sure to get opportunities at the Emirates, although first team football may be a tough go during the first few months. Rest assured the player will surely get to play in Capital One and FA Cup matches.
The player’s technical and goal scoring abilities is the main reason why Arsenal are still looking to sign him in the first place.
