It would be easy to think that Atletico Madrid had turned it into a policy to bring as many Uruguayans and Argentines as possible under Diego Simeone, and El Cholo seems to have set his sights on another of Albiceleste World Cup. In this case, Tottenham Hotspur -defender Cristian Romero.
In the past few days, Los Colchoneros has been connected to another Spurs star who comes from La Plata in Rodrigo Bentancur, but relevant explains that 'Cuti' Romero represents a 'dreamy' for Simeone. Atletico Madrid will be looking this summer for further reinforcements in defense with Cesar Azpilicueta almost certain to leave the club, and Romero will seriously consider his future at Spurs this summer.
Los Rojiblancos does not want to be left as Romero decides to leave the club and as such has already made contact with the Romero camp. For his part, Romero would like a move to Atletico, if there is one on the cards and would do what was needed to make it happen if that would flower. There are also no formal negotiations, but Atletico is aware that every deal will be extremely difficult.
Spurs CEO Daniel Levy is notorious because he is a tough negotiator, and the 26-year-old comes to the flowering of his career with two years left over his deal. Real Madrid is more often linked to Romero than Atletico, but a deal is plausible if Atletico is willing to make an important investment.
It would be because something of a surprise atletico was to invest in the centerback again, after having spent almost € 40 million on Robin Le Normand after last summer. However, as they have demonstrated with Julian Alvarez, if they believe that a game player is on the market, they are willing to spend it happen.
