Sign it or I'll sell it! Tottenham's ultimatum seeks to renew contract with Yuri-Mom Romero → If you refuse, you will immediately cash in 113 billion won

Mar 18, 2025

'I'll give you the best treatment, so let's renew the contract. If you don't, I'll sell it!'

Tottenham Hotspur have clearly sorted out their future with Christian Romero (27). Excluding all complicated cases, only two options were presented. It is a groundbreaking negotiation method. Tottenham's proposal to Romero is 'Re-signing the best treatment in the team' Romero's choice is whether to accept it or not. Tottenham's choice is not to regret it and sell it right away if they refuse to accept it.

Team Talk, a British media outlet, said on the 18th (Korea time) 'Tottenham is preparing to sell Romero in the summer transfer market. I intend to sell it to Real Madrid for 60 million pounds (about 113 billion won)," the report said. Give Me Sports, another media outlet, revealed Tottenham's plans in more detail. The media reported that `Tottenham has decided to sell Romero unless he renews his contract before the summer transfer market opens this year.'

Romero, a former Argentine national team member, joined Tottenham through the summer 2022 transfer market and immediately became a key defender of the team. However, this season has become 'glass body'. Like other Tottenham players, he has been suffering from injuries since the beginning of the season. In November last year, he joined the Argentine national team during the A-match period and suffered a toe injury.

After rehabilitation for about a month, he returned to action against Chelsea on December 9. However, he played 15 minutes in the first half and was replaced. A thigh injury. This time it took a long time to recover. He returned to action in the 28th round of the 2024-2025 English Premier League (EPL) against Bournemouth on the 9th.

Fans cheered the return of the key defender, but they quickly received disappointing news. Romero, who has just returned from injury, was included in the March A-match list. In particular, fans were angry as Romero reportedly wanted to join the national team.

Still, Tottenham still see Romero as a key resource. It is under contract until June 2027, but he wants to renew the contract quickly and hold it for a long time.

So, I also threw away an unconventional proposal in advance. 'Captain' promised better conditions than Son Heung-min. Romero's current weekly salary is 165,000 pounds (about 311 million won), and he offered to increase it to 200,000 pounds (about 377 million won). To be precise, it is the promise of the best treatment in the team beyond Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min is expected to receive 190,000 pounds (about 358 million won).

However, Romero has not readily expressed his intention to accept this offer. Tottenham's leadership was taken aback. It seemed easy to accept the exceptional conditions of the team's highest treatment, but Romero's attitude is lukewarm. Tottenham, which was initially waiting for Romero's acceptance, also changed its attitude as the season was nearing the end.

I decided to go strong and gave a final notice. Romero was informed that the 'before the summer transfer market opened. Tottenham's new plan is to sell it for sale right away in the summer transfer market and convert it into cash if the contract is not accepted by this time.

This 'all or nothing' strategy is likely to be concluded in some form. If Romero accepts the renewal, he can remain in the team for a long time and become a leader. He is expected to receive the highest treatment in the team and take on the next generation captain.

On the other hand, if Romero refuses, Tottenham is also expected to be able to sell quickly. Currently, the connection between Romero and Real Madrid in Spain's Primera Liga is unusual. Romero wants to go to a strong team going to the European Champions League. Tottenham have no vision. Real also need a defensive reinforcement. David Alaba and Eder Militão are out with injuries. Romero is the best alternative.
