Alejandro Saggese was the first coach to call up the full-back for Argentina. “He could have chosen between three national teams, but we did well. The Rossoneri made a good impression”
Luka Romero was born the year of “Champions – The dream”, the reality show about football with Christian Arrieta and Maradona Junior. That of Ciccio Graziani’s outbursts and Francesco Gullo’s tunnel to Rino Gattuso during a Cervia-Milan match. Postcards from almost twenty years ago, but if Romero plays football he owes it to a reality show. Context: Summer 2015, Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands. Luka is a little boy with a rebel crest, the son of a globetrotting footballer who stopped scoring by the sea. He was born in Mexico, has Argentinian parents but has been living in Spain for a while now.
