Tottenham has set the possible sale amount of Christian Romero.
Spain's Okdiario reported on the 24th (Korea time) 'Tottenham is demanding 55 million euros (about 90 billion won) from Atletico Madrid for Christian Romero's transfer fee'
Okediario says 'Atletico sees Romero as a strategic recruit for the next season. I also spoke directly with Romero. The possibility of a trade between Conor Gallagher and Romero is also being discussed, but Tottenham's priority is the transfer fee. Romero said he is very likely to become an Atletico player next season with a clear willingness to transfer.

Romero has recently received great attention for expressing his willingness to leave Tottenham. Gaston Edul, a reporter from Argentina's TyC Sports who is familiar with the news of Argentina, recently interviewed Romero, who said in the interview that "We are in the semi-finals of the European Europa League (UEL). I want to finish this season in the best way"It remains to be seen what happens thereafter. I always want to grow and continue new challenges in a new environment. I've never played in Spain. You also need La Liga experience to compete in a strong league," he said, expressing his willingness to transfer.
This is not the first time that Romero's transfer has been discussed. British media reported that `Tottenham's leadership is ready to issue an ultimatum to Christian Romero' and that `Tottenham will earn a transfer fee through Romero this summer if Romero does not sign a new contract before the end of this season. It is reported that Romero will be given an ultimatum. If the new contract fails, it will be sold,' he said.
Tottenham initially wanted to renew Romero's contract. Considering his position at Tottenham, it was a natural choice. Romero, who moved to Tottenham in 2021, has been playing the main role at Tottenham since joining the team. In the 2023-2024 season, coach Enze Postecoglou has shown a stronger position since his appointment. Romero, who began playing in Postecoglou's tactics, began to play properly. Based on his aggressive defense ability, he pressured his opponent from the front and showed a stable defense from the back. Romero is still playing as the core of the team this season.

However, as various clubs' interest in Romero continued, the possibility of Romero's transfer was steadily raised. In addition, Tottenham's poor team performance this season has strengthened Romero's willingness to transfer, and prospects have increased that Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid can actively recruit.
Atletico is the most active club for Romero. It has already been reported that Romero has spoken to manager Diego Simeone on the phone to transfer to Atletico. Two days ago, Realtico wants to reinforce its defense in the coming summer and is reportedly aiming for Romero as its top priority.
As Tottenham revealed the required transfer fee to Atletico, negotiations between the two clubs have become important. However, considering Tottenham's case of selling Harry Kane, a key player, etc., the negotiations may not be easily concluded even if Atletico pays the required transfer fee. Tottenham's Bayern Munich decided to pay the transfer fee at the time of Kane's transfer, but it has drawn the decision for a long time.
The possibility of Romero's transfer is becoming clearer as summer approaches. Attention is also focusing on whether Atletico will accept Tottenham's request for a transfer fee, and Romero and Tottenham's companion will be completed this summer.
