'60 million pounds (about 111.4 billion won). It is 85 million pounds (about 157.8 billion won)'

The so-called "1st tier speaker" familiar with Tottenham's internal news has revealed shocking information.

It is said that Tottenham has set a much higher transfer fee than already reported in the media to prevent Christian Romero from moving to Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid can't handle it. Putting up a price tag like this can be seen as a declaration that they will not sell it.




Tottenham Hotspur News reported on the 30th (Korea time) 'Tottenham asked for £85 million, not £60 million, for Romero's transfer fee. This is an exclusive report to respond to the possibility of Son Heung-min's transfer.

Romero is said to be highly likely to leave Tottenham in the transfer market this summer. Specifically, there were reports that Atletico Madrid, who wanted him publicly from the end of the season, was imminent. In this regard, the Telegraph reported on the 27th that Chairman Levi set a transfer fee of £60 million for Romero. If Romero's transfer is completed, Tottenham will inevitably lose a lot of power.

In particular, even Son Heung-min, who was the team's captain, is receiving strong love calls from the Saudi Arabian professional team and Turkiye Fenerbahce, so last season 'captain' and 'captain' could leave the team at the same time. This could be a huge blow to new coach Thomas Frank, who has taken the helm of the team.




Therefore, it has been argued that Tottenham is trying to catch Romero and set him up as a new full-time captain in preparation for Son Heung-min's departure. To this end, news has been reported that Tottenham's club has newly set a much larger amount than the originally reported amount as Romero's transfer fee.

John Wenham, who frequently delivers Tottenham's covert internal news through his `Lily White Rose" podcast and is called a '1 Tier Sources', made the remarks in an exclusive interview with Tottenham Hotspur News.

"Tottenham will ask for a much larger amount than reported," Wenham said. "We have to be realistic. With Son Heung-min likely to leave the team this summer, it has become absolutely important to keep Romero. It's also equally important to have him as captain for next season."




Wenham then added "So to sell Romero, his transfer fee must reflect his value at Tottenham fairly. Tottenham have signed Romero for £42.5m. In response, Levy will want double that for the transfer fee. It's not £60m as reported in the media."

If Wenham's claim is actually an internal policy of Tottenham, Romero's transfer is difficult to achieve.

Initially, Romero completed a personal agreement with Atletico Madrid, and Atletico Madrid also raised the transfer fee to the final £55 million, almost reaching an agreement with Tottenham, according to reports. TBR Football has reported that Atletico Madrid and Tottenham are close to reaching a final agreement over Romero's move.

Argentine media outlet Doble Amariya also said on the same day that `Tottenham and Atletico Madrid have reached an agreement on Romero's transfer' and that the two clubs reached an agreement on a transfer fee of 55 million euros (about 79.2 billion won) and an option of 10 million euros (about 15.8 billion won) last weekend. 'There remain tax issues related to the transfer, and discussions will follow next week,' the report said.

The total amount from this is 65 million euros, about 55.7 million pounds. If Tottenham's reportedly wanted transfer fee is £60 million, it is not strange to reach an agreement at around £55 million.

However, as Wenham said, if the transfer fee to Romero that Chairman Levi actually wants is £85 million, a transfer agreement is impossible. For Atletico Madrid, £55 million is the maximum offer. The difference of about 30 million pounds is not a level that can be made up by agreement. Attention is focusing on whether Romero will be able to leave Tottenham.
