Cristian Romero poised to leave Tottenham this summer
Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero has been linked with a move away from the North London club this summer.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Cristian Romero is expected to move on in the coming weeks. He has been linked with La Liga clubs like Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid in recent months. The 27-year-old has been an exceptional performer for Tottenham, and he was a key player for them as they won the UEFA Europa League last season.
They should look to keep players of his quality if they want to compete at a high level next season. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the player to stay on. He has won major trophies for his country in recent years, and he will look to win major trophies at the club level now. Although Tottenham managed to win a European trophy last year, they are not quite at the level required to win the league title or the Champions League. It is no surprise that the Argentina international wants an upgrade. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Romero exit would be a blow
There is no doubt that the 27-year-old is one of the best defenders in the Premier League, and he could be an excellent acquisition for most clubs. He will look to join a club where he will be able to realise his ambitions. Meanwhile, Tottenham have recently appointed Thomas Frank as the club’s new manager. The Danish manager will look to build a formidable side and guide Tottenham to trophies. Losing his best defender this summer will be a blow for him. It will be interesting to see if he can bring in a quality replacement.
Fortunately, Tottenham have secured Champions League qualification for the next season, and it will help them attract top-quality players. Replacing Romero without Champions League football would have been a huge challenge for them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Meanwhile, Spurs should look to improve their squad this summer. They have a talented squad, but they need more depth and quality if they want to compete at the highest level.
