Inter Milan are reportedly finalizing the transfer of teenage striker Thiago Romano from Panathinaikos.
In addition to bolstering their senior squad, the Italian champions have also been working on poaching some of the finest young talents on the globe.
The Nerazzurri have already acquired Real Betis teenage defender Alex Perez as well as Slovenian wonderkid Luka Topalovic.
Yet, Piero Ausilio and Co. are showing now signs of slowing down on this front.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via FcInterNews, the club is on the verge of securing the services of Romano.
The 18-year-old is a Buenos Aires native who has been developing through the ranks of Panathinaikos.
His father, Diego Romano was an Argentine player who spent the vast majority of his playing days in Greece.
He currently works as a scout at Iraklis, which explains why his son started his career in Greece rather than his native Argentina.
Inter Milan On The Cusp Of Signing Panathinaikos Young Prospect Thiago Romano
Thiago has already represented the Albiceleste’s U20 side on five occasions after making his debut last month.
The pink newspaper believes Inter Milan are only one step away from putting Romano’s signature on paper.
The player will likely join the club’s U19 team which will participate in the Primavera league.
The Argentine will be hoping to impress in order to earn a crack at the senior squad in the future.
Romano is a left-footed player who primarily plays as an attacking winger. While he mostly features on the left flank, he can also cover on the right side as an inverted winger.
