For many soccer fans, Fabrizio Romano is the most popular soccer journalist in the world, and he’s not only popular for doing his job as a journalist, but it’s the way he does it that leaves people amused. The Naples-born journalist is usually the go-to guy for many soccer fans whenever they want to get the most authentic inside information about transfers related to their clubs.
Many also know Fabrizio Romano for his “Here We Go” phrase, which he always uses whenever a deal has been confirmed by his inside sources, and in a shocking political twist yesterday, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak sparked a buzz by borrowing this phrase.
Sunak steals Romano’s signature phrase
UK’s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has been in the news a lot in the past few weeks for an attempt to reshuffle his team in a bid to get more like-minded people to help him move the country forward. After assuming office in 2022, Sunak became the first British Asian prime minister, and after a year in office, the former Chancellor of the Exchequer has begun reshuffling his team.
As the leader of the Conservative Party, the role he assumed a day before he became the country’s prime minister, Sunak borrowed Fabrizio Romano’s catchphrase “Here We Go” to announce his plans to strengthen his team by reshuffling.
“HERE WE GO. Today, Rishi Sunak strengthens his team in government to deliver long-term decisions for a brighter future,” his party officially announced on X (formerly Twitter).
The prime minister has since made the controversial decision to bring back former prime minister David Cameron as the new foreign minister.
“I hope that six years as prime minister, 11 years leading the Conservative Party, gives me some useful experience and contacts and relationships and knowledge,” Cameron said.
Romano provides latest update on Erling Haaland’s potential Real Madrid move
Fabrizio Romano is considered one of the most trusted transfer-related journalists in soccer, and he has lived up to that hype in the past few years, breaking exclusive transfer news of some big names. According to some reports, players have also used him to secure transfers to clubs of their dreams, most notably Joao Felix, who used the Italian sports journalist to secure his dream move to Barcelona from Atletico Madrid.
Romano has also been involved in Kylian Mbappe’s transfer updates, from when he was offered a bumper contract to play in Saudi Arabia to how Real Madrid have effectively ended their pursuit of the Frenchman. As a result, another big-name player has been linked to the Spanish giants, and recent reports are suggesting the Los Blancos have shifted their attention to Erling Haaland, who has been the star of the show for Manchester City since signing for them last summer.
However, Fabrizio Romano has provided an update via his column at CaughtOffside. “The latest big name being linked with Real Madrid is Erling Haaland, with the Spanish press claiming he’s their top target now after they decided to stop pursuing Kylian Mbappe.”
“I’m not aware of anything about that at this point – I don’t think it’s even worth mentioning if it’s realistic or not at this point because there’s nothing to be decided for Haaland or Mbappe. Despite some media noise, my honest understanding is that it’s completely quiet on both sides,” Fabrizio Romano explained.
Will Erling Haaland ever play for Real Madrid?
