TA: Atletico Madrid has decided to give up pursuing Romero, they have not had any contact with Tottenham about their players
According to The Athletic, the future of Tottenham center back Romero is gradually becoming clear this week. It is understood that Atletico Madrid has decided to give up their pursuit and start looking for other defensive candidates. They believe that Tottenham will sign a new contract with the players.
Atletico Madrid coach Simeone has always admired Argentine compatriot Romero and even publicly expressed his hope that he would join the team. It seemed that it would not be difficult to enjoy Romero's transfer to Atletico Madrid at that time. But in the end, Atletico Madrid did not have formal contact with Tottenham.
Romero's contract with Tottenham expires in 2027, and this summer is the last chance to sell players at high prices. The club has always been stance that they do not want to lose one of the best players in their team and try to renew their contracts, but this requires a tilt of Romero in terms of treatment, which may become one of the issues that Tottenham needs to work hard to solve next.
