Communication will be crucial, and we need to be organized defensively,” he said.
In preparation for the match, Romero has been focusing on drills that enhance his defensive skills, particularly addressing one-on-one situations, which will likely come into play when facing Saka. “I’m putting in the extra work to ensure I’m ready for this game. I want to perform at my best and help my team get a positive result,” he added.
