Cuti Romero: The Red and White Dream Persists
Despite Tottenham’s qualification for the Champions League, Cuti Romero’s interest in wearing the red and white jersey of Atlético de Madrid remains intact. This opens the door for negotiations with Daniel Levy, the president of Tottenham, known to be a tough negotiator.
Similar to the case of Julián Álvarez, Atlético is carefully planning each step to secure Romero’s signing, considering him a key piece to strengthen the team. The recent conquest of the Europa League by the Argentinian player marks the beginning of a new phase in the negotiations.
It is expected that Miguel Ángel Gil will actively participate in the negotiations with Levy, taking advantage of the previous good relations between both clubs, such as in the transfers of Trippier, Doherty, and Reguilón.
However, Atlético must be prepared to make a significant investment. The objective is to reduce the initial figure of 70 million euros requested by Tottenham, although it is expected that the final agreement will be close to the 52 million that the Spurs paid to Atalanta.
Despite a complicated season in England, Romero’s desire to join Atlético, reunite with his compatriots, and compete in the Champions League with Cholo Simeone’s team remains firm. His recent statements after winning the Europa League reflect his intention to start a new chapter at the Metropolitano. The signing of Cuti Romero is a priority to strengthen the Colchoneros’ defense.
