Louis van Gaal said: “Sergio is a very talented goalkeeper. He was a young keeper during my time at AZ Alkmaar and I am delighted he is joining Manchester United. He had a fantastic World Cup last summer in Brazil, although that is something I have put to the back of my mind! He will be a great addition to the team and I am looking forward to working with him once again.”
While the signing of Romero could worry a number of United fans, as the Argentine has been tipped to replace David De Gea, he could very well be the replacement of Victor Valdes, who is clearly on his way out.
Valdes fell out with Van Gaal regarding the Dutchman’s philosophy and is certain to end his spell at United soon.
