Club career

Born in Valdeganga, Albacete, Romero made his professional debut with hometown's Albacete Balompié in the 2008–09 season – aged only 18 – only missing six Segunda División games out of 42, starting 26 and totalling almost 2,400 minutes as the Castile-La Mancha team retained their league status. His maiden appearance in the competition occurred on 31 August 2008 as a 75th minute substitute in a 2–1 home win against Sevilla Atlético,^[1] and he scored his first goal on 15 November, contributing to a 2–2 draw against UD Salamanca also at the Estadio Carlos Belmonte.^[2]

In summer 2009, Romero signed for Udinese Calcio in Italy.^[3] He made four league appearances in his first year in Serie A, and mainly played with the under-20 side in the Campionato Nazionale Primavera.^[4]

In late June 2010, Udinese agreed a double loan deal with A.S. Bari, subject to Romero and Andrea Coda's decision.^[5] After appearing for the former during pre-season,^[6][7] the former eventually moved to the Apulia club on 2 August.^[8][9]

After appearing in less than one fourth of the league matches, and also suffering top division relegation, Romero was loaned again, returning to his country and joining Granada CF.^[10] He made his La Liga debut on 27 August 2011, starting and being replaced in the second half of a 0–1 home loss against Real Betis.^[11]

After his loan with Granada expired, Romero represented Orduspor, Real Madrid Castilla^[12] and Real Zaragoza, all in temporary deals.^[13] On 4 July 2016, the free agent signed a two-year deal with CA Osasuna of the top level.^[14]

On 19 June 2017, after suffering relegation, Romero cut ties with Osasuna.^[15] On 8 July, however, the club announced that they received € 500,000 in a transfer to Córdoba CF.^[16]

On 17 January 2018, Romero was loaned to fellow second tier team CD Lugo for six months.^[17] On 12 June of the following year, after another relegation, he left Andalusia.^[18]

On 23 June 2019, Romero signed a contract with Qarabağ FK.^[19] He returned to Spain and its second division on 28 September 2022, signing a one-year deal with FC Cartagena,^[20] but left the club on 28 December, after just six appearances (all as a substitute).^[21]
