European soccer transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano shared the interview between Romero and ESPN Argentina on his personal SNS on the 3rd (Korea time). Romero said in the interview that "I don't think about other clubs," regarding the recent transfer rumors. I have great respect for Tottenham."
Romero joined Tottenham on loan from Atalanta in the 2021-2022 season, and immediately transferred to the club. Since joining Tottenham, expectations have been high for Romero's defensive ability on the Serie A stage. However, the first two seasons at Tottenham were also disappointing for Romero. There were many difficulties playing with Eric Dier and Davinson Sanchez as partners.
The national team played as a key defender of the Argentine national team during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and even experienced winning the World Cup, but Tottenham rarely showed as much performance as the national team. However, the situation has changed since Postecoglou's appointment in the 2023-2024 season.
Romero took the center stage of Tottenham's defense under Postecoglou's tactics and also played an active role as vice-captain. In addition to aggressive defense capabilities, he played a key role in the defense and showed excellent performance in every game. Some British media even claimed that Romero is Postecoglou's most trusted player within Tottenham, saying, `Postecoglou knows who he really can trust, and Christian Romero is the only player who has received considerable credit.'

If it's a proposal from Real, neither Romero nor any other team, you can change your mind. There have already been two cases of jumping from Tottenham to Real to becoming a world-class player. It's Luca Modric and Gareth Bale.
Modric moved from Dynamo Zagreb to Tottenham in 2008 and began to make his name known on the European stage in earnest. He caught the attention of all big clubs by showing fantastic ball control, depression and passes during his time at Tottenham, and eventually headed to Real in 2012, demanding a transfer despite Tottenham's dissuasion. Modric has since grown into a world-class midfielder at Real and is having a time of glory with numerous trophies.
Bale headed to Real on a similar route. Bale, who has grown to be the best winger at Tottenham, wore a Real uniform in 2013 after receiving Real's offer to build an attacking team with Ronaldo. Since his transfer to Real, Bale has suffered from injuries, including five European Champions League wins, but if he is healthy, he is a player who suits Real.

Tottenham, who was worried that Romero's interview could lose its core, is more likely to keep Romero centered on the team without losing him after the next season. Attention is also focusing on whether Romero and Son Heung-min will be able to break Tottenham's irrelevant move and win the championship.
