Tottenham defender Cristian Romero is close to joining Atletico

This coming summer, Atletico aims to significantly strengthen their central defense position and has identified the ideal candidate for the role.

Details: According to Sasha Tavolieri, Atletico has already entered advanced negotiations to sign Tottenham's central defender Cristian Romero.

The 2022 World Cup winner has already spoken with Madrid club head coach Diego Simeone to understand his prospects. Romero was extremely pleased with the conversation and agreed to the move.

Atletico will soon send Tottenham an official transfer offer. It's expected that the Spurs will be compelled to sell their leader, as their chances of playing in European competitions next season are slim.

Due to injuries, Romero has played only 14 Premier League matches this season, scoring 1 goal.

Reminder: It was previously reported that Bournemouth's head coach Andoni Iraola does not plan to leave his club for Tottenham.
