Romário Baró, the ‘dragon’ that takes notice of Zidane

Romário Baró is a midfielder. Sometimes marked as ‘Box to box’ for its ability to cover much of the field of play, but actually not only that. He has already given time to see his football develop both at the base of the play and acting behind the point. Even also fallen on right-wing taking advantage of its virtues from that position.

Having said all this, it can be asserted that he is a midfielder polyvalent and, given his youth, one thinks that he has yet to be defined as to be a specialist. A fact is similar to the process that Fede Valverde once went through, which they expected as a very different type of player than he is today, Sport Findings cites.

Due to his way of running, a bit of a runaway horse, one can fall into the error of thinking that he is a rough and unskilled footballer. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, with the ball on the feet repeatedly, even luxuries such as heels and different technical actions are allowed, sometimes too expensive for the gallery.

His presentation to the general public took place at the UEFA Youth League of the 2018/19 season. The one that conquered Porto, beating Chelsea 5-1 in the final and achieving a total of 6 goals throughout the tournament.

Romário Baró he is undoubtedly a footballer to follow, who has practically forced Sergio Conceiçao to count on him despite the reluctance that the Portuguese coach sometimes shows when it comes to giving minutes to the youngest. But the real good guys break the door down like a Romário Baró that Porto has tied up until 2023. Their freedom costs 40 million euros, but soon they may not crave too many.
