Captain Son, it was fun to be with you! Vice-captain leaves Tottenham in the end...Final agreement with Atletico Madrid looms
There is a growing possibility that Tottenham's vice-captain Christian Romero will leave for Atletico Madrid in La Liga, Spain. It is said that the final agreement is close and Romero also wants to transfer.

Romero is the leader of Tottenham's defense and has a huge weight in the team. In some ways, it is considered more necessary for the team than the captain, Son Heung-min. If Romero leaves, Son Heung-min's leadership burden will inevitably increase.

BR Football reported on the 30th (Korea time) "It is reported that Atletico Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur are close to a final agreement over the transfer of Christian Romero."




Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone is said to have persuaded Romero by actively seeking to bring him to the team.

The media reported that `Daniel Levy, chairman of Tottenham, offered Romero a new contract, but Romero said he would leave the team"Romero made it clear that he wanted a new challenge, and Atletico Madrid were an irresistible opportunity for him. "

Currently, Atletico Madrid has made an offer of about 55 million pounds (about 100 billion won) to recruit Romero, and negotiations with Tottenham are reportedly in the final stages.

Levy said he did his best to keep Romero and was even willing to make him the team's highest salary. Indeed, Romero has seriously considered the offer, but he seems to have made it clear that he ultimately wants a transfer.

Analysts say this is also related to the departure of coach Enze Postecoglou.

Former Tottenham manager Postecoglou especially trusted Romero, and Romero has been so disappointed in his social networking service (SNS) since his dismissal.




If Romero leaves, Tottenham is likely to use Kevin Danso as the main player under Thomas Frank. The club is very happy with Danso's performance.

If this happens, the main players Mickey Van Derven and Danso will play as the main players in a combination of central defenders.

However, due to the nature of Tottenham's aggressive tactics, there is a risk of injury, so a backup central defender is also needed.

Negotiations to recruit Japanese defender Takai Kota are nearing the end, and he will soon join the team. Prospect Luca Vuskovic will also return to the team.

Radu Dragusin is also available, but he could leave the team this summer. They say they are open to moving to other teams because they have not shown much presence in the team recently.

Fans are paying attention to whether Tottenham, which was in crisis after losing its defense leader Romero, will be able to reorganize its defense next season to achieve satisfactory results.
