In a recent report, Fichajes mentioned that Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero is generating interest from Spain. It has been revealed that Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are all showing interest in recruiting the Argentine centre-back from the North London club this summer.
Romero’s Inconsistent Form In North London
Romero has struggled to be consistent with his performances at the heart of Tottenham’s backline in this campaign so far. Still, the Argentine talent deserves some credit for scoring six goals and earning four assists in 31 matches for Spurs this season across all competitions.
The 27-year-old can still be one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League when he is playing with confidence on the field. Thus, it is no surprise that so many top clubs from Spain are eager to get a deal done for him this off-season.
His current contract at the North London club will run out in the summer of 2029. Therefore, Tottenham are under no immediate pressure to cash in on him in the summer transfer window.
Should Tottenham Hotspur Let Romero Go This Summer?
Romero is a solid tackler of the ball and can scan the danger well to earn the ball back for his team inside his half. He doesn’t mind putting his foot through the ball when needed and is a tidy passer as well.
Standing at 1.85m, the Argentine sensation is a strong presence in the air. He has got a wealth of experience at the highest level. However, Romero has endured a dip in form this season, which has put his long-term future at Tottenham in doubt.
Still, when fit and firing on all cylinders, the Argentina international is one of the best defenders at the North London club. Therefore, Spurs would be wise not to let him go this summer unless they get relegated from the Premier League.
At 27, Romero is about to enter his prime and could play an important role for Tottenham in the coming years. Hence, Spurs should consider keeping hold of him beyond the end of this campaign. The Londonders should only consider cashing in on him if they receive a big offer for his services later this year.
