"Real Madrid on alert: Cristian Romero wants Tottenham exit Real Madrid have identified the search for a world-class central defender as a primary objective for the 2026-27 season. Romero, who has been a standout performer individually this season, is now a concrete option for the Spanish giants. Report suggest Madrid are prepared to offer upwards of 100 million to secure the 27-year-old, viewing his aggressive, front-foot defending as the perfect successor to the legendary leadership of players like Sergio Ramos."
"Romero is frustrated over lack of ambition from Tottenham The Argentine's discontent stems from what he perceives as a lack of sports planning and ambition from the Tottenham board. Romero, who inherited the captaincy following Son Heung-min's departure, recently caused a stir on social media by describing the club's lack of winter transfer activity as disgraceful. Following a recent 2-2 draw with Manchester City, Romero posted that it was shameful the squad was left with only 11 fit senior players due to poor recruitment."
Cristian Romero is unhappy with Tottenham's hierarchy and could seek a high-profile exit this summer. The World Cup winner's relationship with the Tottenham board has deteriorated, placing him on the market. Real Madrid view a world-class central defender as a 2026-27 priority and consider Romero a concrete option, prepared to offer upwards of 100 million for the 27-year-old. Romero is frustrated by perceived lack of sports planning and ambition, and publicly criticized the club's winter transfer inactivity and the resulting thin squad. The captaincy, public outburst, and insistence by manager Thomas Frank that issues were handled internally signal a fractured relationship. Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Manchester United are among potential suitors.
