After the painful defeat against the PSG in the debut by the Club World Cup, the Cholo aims to reinforce the defense with the Argentine defender.
The defeat by 4 to 0 against Paris Saint-Germain left several defensive shortcomings of Atlético de Madrid by Diego Simeone exposed. For this reason, Cristian Romero's name sounded againthe great yearning of the mattress team in this European summer market. The Cholo was consulted in this regard after the defeat in the debut by the Club World Cup and made its position clear.
“I want Cuti Romero? Obvious! He is a great player“said the Argentine coach at the press conference after the match against PSG. It is that, except Robin Le Normand, a footballer settled in the Spanish team, the rest of the Atleti plants did not live up to this season. Josema Giménez is no longer that of a few years ago and the Frenchman Clement Lenglet alternated good and bad during the campaign.
For this reason, The Cholo believes that it is a priority to strengthen that defense sector with an elite footballer such as Cutiwhich with 27 years is in the fullness of his career.
With the approval of the DT, they must now negotiate both directives. According to specialized sites, The Cordoba defender is appraised at 50 million euros. A high figure, which could be greater taking into account the importance of the Cuti for Tottenham, but not very far -fetched taking into account the figures that are currently handled.
Con Contract in the Spurs until 2027a key factor for the continuity of Cuti can be the change of coach. Beyond the appreciation I had for Ange Postecoglou –shared an emotional farewell message on their networks when they announced their departure-, The arrival of Thomas Frank to the Bank of Substitutes can be a breath of fresh air for a team that ended 17 in the Premier League. This new project, added to the fact that they will play the Champions League next season, could cause the Argentine to make the decision to stay at least one more year.
For now the first chapters of which promises to be one of the novels of the Pass market in Europe are being written.
