Tottenham Hotspur have reached an agreement in principle to sell club captain Cristian Romero to Atletico Madrid. The deal marks a significant shift for the North London side as they prepare to part ways with one of their most influential, yet polarizing, defensive figures.
Paul Scholes has identified two marquee targets for Manchester United ahead of the transfer deadline, including Tottenham defender Cristian Romero and Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton. The Old Trafford legend believes head coach Michael Carrick still requires key defensive and midfield reinforcements to build a squad capable of competing at the highest level.
The transfer saga surrounding Cristian Romero is continuing to come to a head. At present, much points to the Argentine world champion moving to Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid have initiated negotiations to sign Tottenham Hotspur captain Cristian Romero as Diego Simeone seeks to reinforce his defensive unit. The 28-year-old Argentina international is widely expected to depart North London during the summer transfer window despite having signed a four-year contract extension at the club just last August.
