Mario Hermoso Canseco, the Spanish footballer who entered the world on 18 June 1995, currently assumes the role of a central defender for Roma. Standing at 6 foot (1.84m) and tipping the scales at 11 stone 9 pounds (74kg), Hermoso certainly has a dominant physical presence. He proudly wears the number 22 jersey.
According to the reputable Transfermarkt, Hermoso's current market value lies in the region of £6m.
Hermoso began his career at Real Madrid B, a notable breeding ground for footballing talent in the division of Second Division B/1 in Spain. He relocated to Real Valladolid on loan in the summer of 2015, marking his debut performance for the club during the 2015-2016 season with a valiant effort of 31 first team appearances in league matches. After his successful stint in Valladolid, Hermoso returned to his home turf, playing again for Real Madrid B.
In an impactful career change, July 2017 saw Hermoso making a move to Espanyol for a reported fee of around £11m. Hermoso spent two prosperous seasons with Espanyol making regular first-team appearances and even managed to find the back of the net a handful of times.
Atletico Madrid then pinned their faith in Hermoso in the summer of 2019 by securing his services for a substantial fee of around £23m. Hermoso made an immediate impact, becoming a regular figure in the first team over numerous seasons and adding some goals to his tally at the club.
In September 2024, Hermoso packed his bags once again and transferred from Atletico Madrid to Roma in Italy's revered Serie A league. He graced the league with 8 initial appearances for Roma during the 2024-2025 season and continued his form into the current 2025 - 2026 season.
In a surprising twist, Hermoso was loaned out to Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga in January 2025. However, the German stint didn't last long, and he returned to his parent club, Roma in the Serie A after making just a sporadic four appearances for Bayer Leverkusen.
Since his return to Roma in June 2025, Hermoso has made consistent appearances for the club, establishing him as an integral part of the Italian side's defence in the Serie A. With his current season in full swing, Hermoso shows no signs of letting up.
