Romeny featured alongside United right back Hidde ter Avest at Utrecht, and can play in a number of attacking positions, including on either wing or up front. He began his career at NEC Nijmegen, where he had a loan spell at Willem II during the 2020/21 season.
Romeny then signed for FC Emmen in January 2022, and he scored 11 goals in 33 Eredivisie matches during the 2022/23 campaign. He switched to Utrecht in June 2023, and this season has scored two goals in 13 league appearances for the team currently third in the Eredivisie. In November, Romeny opted to represent the Indonesia national team.
