Atletico Madrid threatens Inter for Romero, other teams lurking

The position of Inter in the race for Cristian Romero is threatened by the arrival of Atletico Madrid and other foreign clubs. Time is running out and the Nerazzurri still need to complete outgoing transfers necessary to make their move.

According to Fabrizio Romano, for several days there has been a verbal agreement in place between Inter and Tottenham: 40 million euros, bonuses included. However, the final agreement with the Argentine defender is still missing. “Inter has never had problems reaching an agreement with Romero, who has asked for the same salary he earns at Tottenham, that is, 5.5 million euros plus bonuses to reach 6. Inter knows this and, if they want to close the deal, they can do it whenever they want,” said Romano.

The main issue concerns the sales. The Pavard situation remains blocked and the other departures are not proceeding as hoped. Timing is therefore crucial: other foreign teams could reach agreements and close the deal before the Nerazzurri. Atletico Madrid has intensified contacts and is not the only interested club. The sales of Ruggeri and Molina, according to Romano, could lead to significant developments in the negotiation.
