At the center of the Italian football scene, Alessandro Romano confirms himself as a protagonist not only for his personal growth but also for the stability of Cagliari. The young 20-year-old midfielder, born in Switzerland and raised among the Swiss youth teams, chose Italy and immediately gained the trust of coach Roberto Mancini, who included him in the first team of the national team. The debut against Belgium, although critical, did not affect his performance on the pitch, where he demonstrated that he possessed the qualities necessary to handle pressure.
Cagliari, led by Fabio Pisacane, saw Romano become one of the pillars of the team. Pisacane, who knows the player from the youth sector, appreciated his versatility and ability to recover the ball aggressively. Romano has already made his most visible contribution with a spectacular goal from far away against Parma, decisive for the first victory of the season. Alongside the experience of Harry Winks, the young midfielder guarantees dynamism and solidity in the midfield area.
Despite the growing interest from more important teams, the club's line is clear: it will not move in January. President Tommaso Giulini has underlined the need to keep the team strong to continue making cash and there is no room for a transfer in that period. Romano, therefore, remains at Cagliari for the rest of the season, with the hope of consolidating his position and contributing to the team's success.
Romano's next match will be against Juventus, one of the big teams in the championship. Cagliari, who started the season with four wins in five days, wants to maintain their form and surprise again. Juventus, with three wins and a draw, have a solid backline but it will be a test of maturity for the young midfielder. With his presence, Romano will continue to be one of the symbols of this unexpected start to the season for Cagliari.
