– “We’ve been absolutely delighted with Romeo since he arrived with us,” said Brentford B head coach Neil MacFarlane.
– “He came to us from Inter Miami with the aim of working with us during their close season. Romeo has applied himself unbelievably well, he’s really bought into the culture and the group which he has become a big part of.
– “I love his standards and the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch.
– “He’s been able to get fitter and fitter during his time with us and it leaves him in a good place to now step forward having joined us on loan.”
