Sergio Romero is ready to step back out of David de Gea\u2019s shadow at Manchester United and see his patience rewarded with more trophies.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old is hoping for more of the same as the Red Devils\u2019 FA Cup keeper for 2017-18, with there a desire on his part to prove his worth heading towards another potential trophy challenge and a World Cup campaign with his country.<\/p>\n

Romero told United Review<\/em> ahead of a quarter-final clash with Brighton: \u201cThe fact that Jose [Mourinho] allowed me to play in the Europa League [last season] showed the confidence he had in me.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy priority is being ready 100 per cent, in good shape both physically and mentally, because I’m not just fighting for many things for my club. I’m also fighting for many things at international level, so I’m someone who has his head in the right place to perform well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Romero\u2019s last three outings have all come in the FA Cup, against Derby, Yeovil and Huddersfield.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that it’s a tough competition, we know that there are seven other teams who also want to win this weekend and to progress,\u201d added Romero.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBut we are focused on our work and I\u2019m sure we will be in peak condition. We don\u2019t treat this as a secondary competition, we see it as a competition where we need to get to the final and win it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
