The 17-year-old Romero, who is contracted to Lazio until 2024, has made four first team appearances so far this season under coach Maurizio Sarri, for a total of 39 minutes. He has reportedly impressed a number of the Biancocelesti squad with his technical ability in training.
The Roman club picked up the Argentinian teenager last summer in a deal worth around €200,000 from Spanish side RCD Mallorca, securing the talented youngster for a low fee.
