The negotiations for Cristian Romero could be entering the decisive phase. According to what Fabrizio Romano has revealed, Inter and Tottenham have reached a basic agreement on the figures: the deal would be around 40 million euros including bonuses, the amount the Nerazzurri had in mind when they started talks.
On the salary front, Romano denies the rumors that have circulated: the Argentine defender has never asked for 7 or 7.5 million euros. His request is to maintain the same salary he receives at the Spurs, about 6 million including bonuses. This is a figure known to Inter, who would be willing to satisfy him.
The main issue concerns timing and departures. Before closing the deal, the Milanese club needs to complete some sales, with the name of Pavard still at the center of discussions. Romano emphasizes that Romero does not have agreements with other clubs, denying rumors of an agreement with Barcelona, and is waiting to see if Inter will decide to move forward concretely.
The next few days will be decisive. The wait by the Lombard club, necessary to sort out outgoing transfers, could, however, open the door to other clubs interested in the Argentine center-back.
