Zaid Romero is an Argentine central defender, born on 15 December 1999 (age 26), and currently with Getafe. A towering presence at 6ft 5in (1.95m), he is naturally suited to the middle of the back line, where size tends to get noticed before anything subtler does.
His clearest spell of senior production came with Estudiantes de La Plata in 2023, when he made 22 league appearances and scored once. That season gave him a proper run of games and helped frame him as more than just another tall centre-half working his way through the Argentine system.
Romero now wears squad number 24 at Getafe. In 2026-27, he has made eight appearances across all competitions, including six in LaLiga and two in Conference League qualifiers.
His career to this point is that of an established professional still building his European profile: developed in Argentina, tested at Estudiantes, and now trying to secure firmer ground in Spain with Getafe.
