The BBC reported on the 11th (Korea time) that Romero has emerged as a potential recruitment target for Real Madrid.
Tottenham, led by coach Enze Postecoglou, is in a state of restlessness. Tottenham suffered humiliation in their last game before the A-match break in November. Tottenham lost 1-2 to Ipswich Town in the 11th round of the English Premier League (EPL) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 10th. Tottenham dedicated their first win to Ipswich this season after Crystal Palace. Tottenham was ranked 9th with 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses (16 points) in the previous 10 games. However, the gap with the top ranks was not large. If he won on the day, he could jump to third place. But Tottenham missed their best chance at home. Eventually, fans booed, and in the end, Coach Postecoglou even had a war of nerves with fans.

Romero joined Tottenham through the summer 2021 transfer window. At the time, he was on a lease. Tottenham recognized Romero's talent and fully recruited him ahead of the 2022-2023 season. The transfer fee was £42.5 million. The contract period is until June 2027. Romero will enter his last two years after the end of this season.
Romero scored six goals and one assist in 82 EPL matches in his Tottenham jersey. In the 2023-2024 season, he scored five goals in 33 league games and achieved a 'career high'. In particular, he helped Son Heung-min to lead the team as vice-captain. This season, he has played in all 11 league games and is guarding Tottenham's back.
In fact, it is not the first time that Real Madrid are interested in Romero. Even before the opening of this season, there were rumors of a transfer to Real Madrid. Court offside 'Romero has rejected Real Madrid's interest in the past. Real Madrid, however, is expected to make another move in the transfer market this winter. Romero said a move to Real Madrid was a good opportunity for him and he could be keen on a move. Tottenham want to stay in Romero. But Romero's future is yet to be known'
