Born 21 February 1993 in Italy, Romano entered sports journalism at a moment when social media was beginning to erode the old gatekeepers. He made his name not through a newspaper masthead but by cultivating sources across European football and posting updates faster than the official channels. The work turned him into something new: a transfer correspondent who became a brand, an influencer whose catchphrase carried more weight than a club's press release. By his early thirties he'd become the name fans refreshed their feeds for during every transfer window.
