The forward Ángel Romero is facing an uncertain future at Corinthians. The Paraguayan, who has lost his place, only has a contract with the club until the end of this year.
According to Gazeta Esportiva, the current tendency is that the Timão's board will choose not to renew the player's contract.
Corinthians will only extend Romero's contract if the 33-year-old Paraguayan presents something different towards the end of this season. In a slump, the number 11 is in a long goal drought and has even lost his place to young players from the club's base, such as Kayke and Gui Negão.

Romero has modest numbers for Corinthians in 2025. In 45 games played, being 25 as a starter, the athlete scored only five goals and provided three assists.
In a bad phase, the forward has become a target of criticism from the fans, despite the idolatry. He has been four months without scoring a goal. The last time he shook the nets was in April, in the 1-0 victory over Racing-URU, for the South American.
Romero is not the only player from Corinthians' professional squad with a contract nearing its end. Besides him, Gustavo Henrique, Angileri, Maycon, and Talles Magno also have contracts only until the end of this season.
The renewal talks with Gustavo Henrique are underway. The board has also started negotiations to extend Angileri's contract.
As for Maycon and Talles Magno, who are on loan, they will be evaluated in the coming months.
