SERIE A - Two Italian underdogs after Sergio Romero

A free agent since early July, after his six season-long Manchester United tenure, 34-year old former Argentinian international goalkeeper Sergio Romero might be back into Italian football realms. Playing for Sampdoria already in 2011/12, 2012/13, and 2014/15 seasons, former AS Monaco and AZ Alkmaar stopper has in fact been targeted by both Serie A underdogs Spezia and Venezia.

While the former are still in talks with another experienced goalkeeper, Antonio Mirante, as reported on our columns already, the latter are planning to side another veteran to 36-year old Finnish stopper Niki Maenpaa. A Racing Club de Avellaneda alumni, Romero was recently linked to a move back to his home country as well.
