Mario Hermoso, born on 18 June 1995 (age 31), is a Spanish central defender with Roma. His market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
Hermoso’s early career included loan football, a useful stage for a defender needing senior minutes rather than another season of controlled development. That grounding fed into his time at Espanyol, where he became a regular and had his most productive league season in 2018-19, scoring three goals in 32 appearances.
He is now at Roma, where in 2026-27 he has made 10 Serie A appearances and scored two goals. His career has been that of an established Spanish centre-back who worked through the usual development steps, made his mark at Espanyol, and has carried that experience into Italy.
