David Romero transfer saga

Overview

On August 11, 2026, the transfer of Argentine striker David ‘Rulo’ Romero from Tigre to Parma was finalized for 10 million USD. The deal includes the sale of 100% of his economic rights and a five-season contract. This transaction provides a windfall for his developmental club, Talleres de Córdoba, which is set to receive approximately 3.5 million USD in capital gains and training compensation.

By August 14, 2026, further details emerged regarding the structure of the deal, which is reported to consist of a €7 million base fee plus €3 million in performance-related bonuses. The 23-year-old striker, who has previously played for Unión La Calera in Chile and Talleres de Córdoba, has signed a contract running until June 30, 2031. He arrives in Italy to replace Mateo Pellegrino, who recently moved to Fiorentina. Following the completion of his paperwork, Romero was seen at the Tardini stadium observing a match against Catania.

On August 27, 2026, Romero was officially introduced to the squad alongside fellow Argentine attacker De Martis. During his introduction, Romero described himself as a ‘powerful player who excels at attacking space’ and identified Luis Suarez as his footballing idol. He expressed enthusiasm for the club’s project and a desire to grow with the team.
