On 26 June 2019, Romagnoli arrived to  Moscow for negotiations with Russian Premier League club FC Spartak Moscow. He was registered by Spartak on their FC Spartak-2 Moscow squad on 5 July 2019. He was transferred from Roma to Spartak in short succession after Ezequiel Ponce, Spartak paid 3 million euros for each transfer, even though that sum was considered significantly over market value for Romagnoli. Ponce had a 40% sell-on clause that was owed to his pre-Roma club Newell's Old Boys. Newell's Old Boys lodged a complaint with FIFA's Players' Status Committee, claiming that the Romagnoli transfer value was artificially inflated  and Ponce value artificially lowered, to reduce the money owed to the Argentinian club for the Ponce transfer. FIFA eventually rejected their claim, noting that even though Romagnoli transfer fee was unexpectedly high, there is no direct evidence of the scheme in the documented communications between Spartak and Roma. In two seasons with Spartak-2, Romagnoli made one appearance in November 2020 game against FC Nizhny Novgorod, allowing 4 goals. Catanzaro. On 18 August 2021, he signed a one-year contract with Serie C club Catanzaro.
