Major Cristian Romero transfer update emerges as Tottenham decide whether they want to sell him amid Atletico Madrid links
Atletico Madrid have made the signing of Cristian Romero one of their primary priorities in the summer.
Romero is assessing his future at Tottenham as Atletico Mad﷽rid are one of the many clubs who are interested in snapping the Wo🅰rld Cup winner up in the summer.
Tottenham Hotspur would naturally be aware that Diego Simeone’s side have all the pulling power to attract the Argentine towards a move to the Spanis🌸h capital — with Diego Simeone proving once again this season that hꦐe remains capable of helping them compete for trophies.
Furthermore, Romero wishes to play Champions League football and at Spurs, he ꩲwill be unable to do so in the following campaign as they sit in 14th place in the Premier League.
The question every Tottenham supporter will be asking is whether the club are prepared to sell Cristian Romero, who remains one of their most important playe💟rs.
Tottenham ready to sell Cristian Romero amid Atletico Madrid links
As for Romero himself, a crucial factor that could attract him towards a move to Atletico Madrid is the fact tﷺhat he can finally be recognised as one of the best d𒁏efenders in Europe.
James Maddison thinks Romero is underrated to this day and perhaps a part of the reason that is the case i👍s due to S💞purs’ woes this season in particular.
It is imperative to keep in mind that Tottenham were prepare to extend Romer♒o’s contract and make him their highest earner last month.
But journalist Ben Jacobs has now revealed on GiveMeSport’s ‘Market Madness’ show that Tottenham are ready to sell Romero to Atletico Madrid after all: “I can tell you that Atletico Madrid have put the Tottenham centre-back Cri♛stian Romero on their list of options this summer and Tottenham’s position on a sale has now softened, so if we go back to the winter, Spurs were thinking of extending Romeroജ.”
J🐼acobs also revealed that Atletico Madrid are looking to pay a fee of £33 million to sign Romero: “Now, as he heads towards two years left on his contract, Tottenham are prepared to sell and this is a move driven by Diego Simeone and I can tell you that Atletico Madrid have already made contact with the Romero camp and they’re looking to pay something in the region of €40 million or £33 million.”
“Now, Tottenham paid 43 million quid, so that’s €50 million and about six months ago when he was also being linked with Real Madrid, the price was about £60 million, €70 million. Now, it’s likely to be lower than that. But instead of it being Real ♍Madrid, even though they are looking for a centre-back, my understanding is Atletico Madrid are the most serious suitor for Romero and there is a concrete possibility that Tottenham may be prepared to sell.”
Tottenham already have a Cristian Romero replacement in mind
For Ange Postecoglou, it would be ideal if Tottenham decide to keep Romero a🌼s it would be difficult to replace him if he does move to Atletico Madrid.
However, for every top club, 🌞it is especially crucial to have contingent plans in place just in case one of their stars players opts to leave.
With that being the case, Tottenham have been scouting Ousmane Diomande throughout the s🌜eason and could be available for £50 million.
However, Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Newcastle United are all keeping dabs on Diomande as 𓆉well.
