Tottenham center-back Cristian Romero was at the center of transfer rumors in September, with a report linking Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Manchester United to him over the summer.
Although Tottenham didn’t put a specific price on Romero, Transfermarkt estimated his value at €65 million. Despite the attention from these top clubs, Tottenham made it clear they weren’t open to offers for their defender.
Recently, TBR Football reported that Tottenham plan to meet with Romero in the coming months to discuss a new contract, given the growing interest in the Argentine.
While Romero is happy at Tottenham, he’s reportedly concerned about the club’s absence from Champions League football—a point he’s raised over the past six months.
More confirmation that Real Madrid want Cristian Romero
This past week, Give Me Sport reported that Real Madrid’s interest in Romero might persuade him to hold off on signing a new contract with Tottenham.
The report also reveals that Tottenham is willing to make Romero one of the club’s highest earners in an attempt to convince him to stay rather than make the move to Real Madrid ahead of the 2025-26 season.
CaughtOffside also backed this information, reporting on Sunday that Real Madrid are looking for defensive reinforcements, with Romero among their top targets.
Moreover, their information reveals that the Argentine has rejected Real Madrid’s interest in the past, but the Spanish club is expected to make a move again in the winter transfer window.
