Atletico Madrid is planning a large Squad resistance in the summer transfer window prior to the 2025/26 LA Liga campaign.
Diego Simeone will have a budget to work with in the Spanish capital after another season of UEFA Champions League money has now been secured.
Simeone focuses on a large number of options to strengthen his options with a rumor focus on the Premier League as a source of new faces.
Tottenham Center Back Cristian Romero is expected to be high on Simeone's wish list, because he wants to add another Argentinian to his growing contingent in the Estadio Metropolitano.
The situation at Spurs remains restless with head coach Ange Postecoglou under real pressure after a bad Premier League while he wants to save himself by winning the Europa League.
Tottenham would like to keep Romero and the club is preparing for opening contract extensions with 26-year-old on the back of him and admits that he would like to play in Spain in the future.
Romero stays on the agenda of Simeone, but Tottenham will fight to hold him, with a reported price tag of approximately € 80 million.
In addition to their urge to Romero, exclusive reports from the Times indicate that Atletico Madrid also breathe new life into their earlier transfer interest in Romero's Spurs teammates Rodrigo Bentancur, after a first January -link.
The Uruguay International has struggled with injuries for the past 12 months, and despite his interest in Spurs plants, he starts the last year of his contract in North Londs.
The 27-year-old will sit down with the club at the end of the campaign to assess his options, but the priority of Tottenham will be to sell if he chooses not to renew.
To prevent a possible free transfer report in 2026, Atletico Madrid a reduced price agreement could be offered, with an asking price in the £ 25 million region.
