Tottenham Poised to Make PSG, Real Madrid’s €65M-Rated Target Highest-Paid Player | OneFootball

Tottenham center-back Cristian Romero was linked with a summer move to Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Manchester United in September, drawing significant transfer attention.

A recent report from TBR Football suggests that Tottenham plan to meet with Romero in the coming months to discuss a new contract, prompted by the growing interest in the Argentine defender.

While Romero is reportedly happy at Tottenham, he has expressed concerns about the club’s lack of UEFA Champions League football, a point he’s raised multiple times over the last six months.

With clubs like Real Madrid and PSG offering regular Champions League action, Tottenham could face a challenge in retaining the 2022 FIFA World Cup winner.

TBR Football reported on Tuesday that Tottenham have reached out to Romero’s representatives to start contract negotiations. The club are also prepared to make him their highest-paid player, but the report mentions that Romero’s camp is still evaluating the situation.

The Argentine defender views Champions League football as crucial to his future, having only appeared in the tournament once since joining Spurs. Although there’s no specific asking price set on the 2022 FIFA World Cup winner, Transfermarkt estimated his value at €65 million.
