After leaving South America at the age of 20, he quickly climbed with Genoa, which led to a transfer from 2019 to Juventus. But Romero never played a game for the series -a -giants, initially remained borrowed from Genoa and then moved to Atalanta with a similar deal. The latter finally paid only € 16 million for a permanent deal in 2021, significantly less than Juve’s € 26 million.
