'Cuti' Romero, next star reinforcement for Atleti?
Atlético de Madrid is already planning for next season and, among its priorities, is the reinforcement of the defense with a world champion: Cristian ‘Cuti’ Romero, Tottenham center-back.
Although the operation is not easy, the interest of the Colchoneros club is evident and the possible influence of Diego Simeone could be decisive, as it was in the signing of Julián Álvarez.
According to recent reports, the player and the Argentine coach have held conversations, which represents a significant advance for Atleti. However, the main obstacle lies in the high transfer price set by Tottenham, estimated at 80 million euros.
Despite this significant economic barrier, both Romero and his representative would be willing to facilitate the negotiation, which opens a door of hope for the Rojiblancos fans. With a contract until 2027 and a market value of 55 million euros, ‘Cuti’ Romero is emerging as an ambitious target for Atleti, who trusts in Simeone’s persuasive ability and the player’s willingness to finalize his arrival at the Metropolitano.
