Just make up your own mind if you want to believe a Tweet someone else posts on here. Someone posted an alleged Tweet from “Gio Lo Celso” about Romero with the Twitter tag of @thfccharleyyy and no one cared other than to tell the OP it was a fake. What a trivial thing to worry about.

I think Atalanta will want a bigger chunk upfront than maybe is typical. Don’t forget they have to turn around and immediately send €16 to Juve. So they will want that, plus some so they can spend on a replacement.

Only if the terms of the option payments require them to be all up front. Which we don’t know and IMO would be poor contractually on the part of Atalanta.

Let’s buy Romero and Tomiyasu, with the agreement we will loan Tomiyasu to them. Then, we cancel Tomiyasu’s loan after about a day and tell them to pound sand.

Let’s pray this saga ends tomorrow but somehow I doubt it
I don’t get why we don’t just move on and call them on this I’m not sure he is as good as to be worth all this aggro time will tell I guess but the season is t that far away

All ITKs seem to be certain Romero is happening, as do the press in Argentina, for whatever that’s worth. Everyone needs to calm down a little.

Getting Romero & Tomiyasu signed this week, with perhaps 1 or 2 out, would be excellent.

Yeah not quite the news we were hoping for, I would be beyond gutted if it fell through at this stage. Feels like the chance to sign a proper top CB who can go on to be world class and be our lynchpin at the back. If we don't get him and we end up with the likes of Vestegard etc, would be so typical of our luck.

Just have to hope Paratici uses all of his nous and experience to get it over the line. I do feel more confident with him leading negotiations. He is Italian, he knows how it all works over there.

Reading, its happened, just personal terms to be done. The Italian press are saying its been agreed.

Edit, agreed price just details need sorting. The source is form Argentina?
