Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero has been linked with a move away from White Hart Lane, with Real Madrid expressing interest in landing the former Atalanta star. The Argentine centre back was linked with the Spanish giants along the previous summer window; however, Daniel Levy was adamant about not letting the player leave as he put a hefty price tag on his head.
Many thought the links with the move to Los Blancos would calm down once the summer window concludes, though that hasn’t been the case as they have continued to pursue a move for the 26-year-old. And the Lilywhites could face a stern test to keep hold of the player in the upcoming winter transfer window as CaughtOffside indicates Madrid’s probable push for Romero’s signature in January.
Will Spurs hold onto Romero amidst Real Madrid’s pursuit?
Carlo Ancelotti’s are in dire need to bring in a new central defender as they have been dealt with a series of injuries at the back, the latest being Eder Militao’s ACL, that will keep him occupied on the sidelines for the rest of the ongoing season, and things become more complicated owing to David Alaba’s injury, whose return remains uncertain following a serious ligament problem last year.
In the midst of such defensive woes, Florentino Perez would be looking to make a possible push to bring in their defensive targets in the winter window, with Romero emerging among top priority targets.
