Born inTandil,Buenos Aires Province, Romeo started his professional career in 1995 withEstudiantes de La Plata, playing exactly 40Primera División matches. He blossomed as a top-rate player withSan Lorenzo de Almagro, scoring 15 goals in only 17 matches in2001'sClausura, in an eventual league conquest.

In January 2005, he was loaned toRCD Mallorca for six months, after which he was released.
Having signed with another team in Spain andLa Liga,CA Osasuna, in July 2005,[1] Romeo scored four times[2] in 24 matches as theNavarresefinished fourth, a best ever (tied).

In the 2007 summer, Romeo returned to Argentina and San Lorenzo, going on to eventually score more than 100 official goals (both spells combined) for them. He was released in July 2010, signing with freshly promotedQuilmes Atlético Club.[4]
