Romero drops hint over Man Utd return after watching Sheriff win

Sergio Romero has hinted he’d love to return to Manchester United during a candid chat with fans outside Old Trafford. The Argentina international was recently in attendance as the club beat Sheriff 3-0 on Thursday night thanks to goals from Diogo Dalot, Marcus Rashford and Cristiano Ronaldo. And it seems as though he still loves his old side, despite a difficult exit last year.Manchester United signed Romero back in the summer transfer window of 2015, when Louis van Gaal was manager, with David De Gea being linked with a move to Real Madrid at the time.And though the Argentine wouldn’t always be No 1 during his stint at Old Trafford, he still became something of a club hero among their supporters.Romero rarely let United down and played a key role as they won the Europa League under Jose Mourinho in 2017, while he also helped them to FA Cup and Carabao Cup triumphs as well.The current Boca Juniors star sat in the stands to watch United’s victory over Sheriff on Thursday.And, after the game, the goalkeeper was quoted as saying ‘hopefully quick’, per @Mazietilly, when asked when he was coming back.Man Utd transfers: Plans for next three signings are damning on Solskjaer Man Utd transfer news: Sergio Romero has hinted he’d love to return (Image: GETTY) Man Utd transfer news: Sergio Romero joined back in the summer of 2015 (Image: GETTY) Man Utd transfer news: Sergio Romero is unlikely to return to challenge David De Gea (Image: GETTY)He’d later open up on his difficult time with the Red Devils upon moving to Italy, saying: ‘It was a strange year for me, but I trained all year at Manchester United.
