Genoa defender Cristian Romero is reportedly set to undergo a medical at Juventus ahead of a Summer switch.

Once the medical is successful, Romero will pen a deal with Juventus that runs until 2024 however, return to Genoa on loan for the 2019/2020 season.

Juventus continue to increase the depth in the defensive department, with the pending signing of Mathijs de Ligt from Ajax and having already signed former Sassuolo defender Merih Demiral in a £13 million deal, earlier this summer.

The return on loan to Genoa for Romero seems the better option as he is seen as a future prospect and it looks like there is no space in the team for him at the moment.

The Italian champions feel the loan deal is the better option for him, to allow him to grow and gain more first-team experience, after making an impressive debut season.

Romero joined Genoa from Argentine side, Belgrano, last summer for a fee of around 1.7 million Euros and was impressive, making 29 appearances in all competitions and scoring two goals.

He was vital as Genoa narrowly escaped relegation, at the expense of Empoli as they both finished on the same number of points but Genoa had a better head-to-head, having won the two meetings between both teams.

Sort:  

Romero is perspective player, but at the moment there will not be too much room for him. There is Chiellini, Bonucci, and Rugani. Demiral has joined and De Ligt is about to arrive. The only option available at the moment is to borrow him to another club. He must wait for his moment ;)
