Inter is working on Cristian Romero. The Nerazzurri club has already initiated first contacts with Tottenham for the Argentine defender and in the coming days intends to take a decisive step by meeting with the player’s entourage. The English club has decided to sell the player, who will leave London in this transfer window.
This was confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, who gave an update on the negotiations: “Now I see Romero’s name everywhere, but a week ago when I told you about Inter’s attempts, everyone rushed to say it was impossible. Before saying it’s done, there’s still a long way to go: clearly there are major difficulties, it’s not a deal that’s close or done, but I said Inter would try and I repeat that they haven’t given up.”
The journalist then added further details: “Inter is ready to have contact with Romero’s entourage, they waited for the end of the Argentina World Cup, and already this week Inter will talk about it, making a move on the player’s side. Tottenham, as far as I know and I confirm, has decided to sell Romero: it’s over, he will leave.”
However, there remains an important obstacle in the race for the defender. Barcelona currently represents the main competitor, although the Catalans will first have to sell a player from their defensive department before making a move. The path, however, seems clear: the Nerazzurri have expressed their intention to make a concrete attempt and have already taken the first steps with the English club.
