The Tottenham squad is shaking. This is the moment when captain Son Heung-min is absent.
Gaston Edul, a reporter from Argentina's TyC Sports, who is familiar with Argentina's news, shared his interview with Romero on his personal SNS on the 22nd (Korea time).
Romero 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.
For Tottenham, it is an interview that can't help but be embarrassed. Tottenham is doing its best to escape from the tournament, aiming to win the Europa League after its disastrous slump in the English Premier League (EPL) this season. If you face Glimt in the semifinals and reach the final, you can meet the winner of Manchester United and Athletic Clube to compete for the championship. Romero also did not hide his willingness, but in the interview, he suddenly showed his willingness to transfer and said something that could shake up the Tottenham squad.

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.

The interest of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid shook Romero's heart. There are even further controversies such as participation in the European Champions League and Tottenham medical staff, and there are increasing claims that Romero could leave the team in the upcoming summer.
The most likely destination is Atletico. 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.
Despite Atletico's active courtship and Romero's intention to transfer, negotiations with Tottenham do not seem easy. It has already decided to demand a huge transfer fee, signaling a difficult negotiation. However, in this situation, Romero openly demanded a transfer, and Tottenham is more likely to have a shaky team atmosphere and difficulties in negotiations.

Meanwhile, Tottenham continues to have evidence of faltering team discipline in the absence of captain Son Heung-min due to injury.
In the 2024-2025 English Premier League (EPL) home game against Nottingham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 22nd, James Madison, Brennan Johnson and Dominic Solanke, who are preparing for Tottenham Warming Zone, were seen warming up with a smile while the team was trailing 0-2. When he recognized that the camera was photographing them, he suddenly made a serious face. Since then, Tottenham lost 1-2 and recorded 18 league losses this season, but there was no sense of crisis in the squad.
