Latest Fantasy Rumors
Man United not interested
Manchester United aren't expected to make a move for Romero this summer, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
Even though a previous report linked Romero to a move to Old Trafford, it seems the Red Devils aren't keen on making a move for the Argentina center-back. They have several players who could fill that position, and it's believed that Manchester United are expected to target other positions outside of center-back during the summer transfer window.
