Tottenham defender Cristian Romero has been linked to Real Madrid and Fabrizio Romano has spoken exclusively Caught offside to answer the transfer rumours.
The Argentina international has been a key player for Spurs in recent times, so it’s perhaps not too surprising to see some speculation surrounding his future, although Romano has told these stories in his latest Daily Briefing column.
talking with Caught offside for the piece, Romano suggested that nothing concrete is happening with Romero’s future at the moment, although a new contract with Tottenham could be a topic of discussion in the coming months.
Spurs fans will no doubt be hoping this means their club can remain in a strong position regarding the 26-year-old’s future, with his current contract running until 2027 anyway, and with little indication that there are so many links with Real Madrid or anyone else. other big clubs.
Romero transfer: Fabrizio Romano offers good news for Tottenham fans
Speaking about the recent Romero speculation, Romano said: “Cristian Romero remains an important player for Tottenham and so it is perhaps normal that they start to see rumors of interest from other top-flight clubs, with some fans who ask me if there is anything to do with the links with Real Madrid.
“However, they tell me that nothing is happening now. Romero’s contract could be an issue in the coming months as Spurs of course want to keep him long-term; but no active talks have started yet.”
Romero will surely be an important part of Ange Postecoglou’s project for the present and the future, but at the same time it is easy to imagine that he would also be good enough for an elite club like Real Madrid.
If Tottenham continue to go trophyless and miss out on Champions League qualification, then Romero could be one of the key figures at the club pushing for a move elsewhere to fulfill their ambitions.
