Romero aiming to be Man Utd's number one as he plots Old Trafford stay

The Argentine goalkeeper could become the Red Devils' first-choice in 2017-18, with speculation continuing to link David de Gea with Real Madrid

Sergio Romero says it is his intention to remain at Manchester United and become the club’s first-choice goalkeeper.

The Argentine has seen his future called into question on the back of what turned out to be a productive campaign at Old Trafford.

Despite filling back-up duties to David de Gea, Romero was able to impress when called upon and helped to keep a clean sheet as United secured Europa League glory.

With De Gea continuing to be heavily linked with a big-money move to Real Madrid, it could be that his understudy is promoted to the number one spot by Jose Mourinho in 2017-18.
