Since then he has played for his country on several occasions, and was part of Argentina’s squad for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil where they finished runners-up to Germany. He will already be familiar with the methods of Manchester United manager Van Gaal, who was coach during Romero’s time at Dutch club AZ Alkmaar. “He was a young keeper during my time at AZ Alkmaar and I am delighted he is joining Manchester United,” Van Gaal said on the club’s website. “He will be a great addition to the team and I am looking forward to working with him once again.” AFP
