Overview
- Trusted transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano said on Tuesday that Romero is expected to leave Tottenham this summer, with no deal yet completed.
- Romano reported that Tottenham offered Romero to Inter during separate talks over Djed Spence and that both Inter Milan and FC Barcelona have shown interest in signing him.
- Sources describe the move as complicated because Romero remains under contract until June 2029 and clubs regard the asking price as very high.
- Tottenham’s recent instability and poor league finishes, including back-to-back 17th-place results reported in coverage, have contributed to player frustration and helped prompt Romero’s push to depart.
- Negotiations are ongoing and could be prolonged by competition between buyers and valuation disputes, with any sale likely to shape Tottenham’s transfer plans this window and buyers’ defensive recruitment.
