Santiago Castro, the young Argentine striker who was included in Lionel Scaloni’s preliminary squad list for the FIFA World Cup, is on the verge of completing a high-profile transfer to Italian club AS Roma. According to widespread reports from Argentine sports media outlets including TyC Sports and Olé, negotiations between clubs have advanced rapidly toward a permanent agreement involving a multi-million-euro fee.
