Overview
- Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio confirmed the club’s active interest in Romero on Sunday and said talks have taken place with the player’s agent and Tottenham.
- Italian outlet SportMediaset reported that Inter submitted an opening deal structured as an expensive loan with a mandatory purchase clause totaling about €40m and that Romero has given a ‘total green light’ to the move.
- Insiders say Tottenham have prepared for Romero’s exit by reinforcing their defence with new signings, and Fabrizio Romano reports Spurs expect the centre‑back to leave if a suitable offer is agreed.
- Romero’s Transfermarkt value sits at about €50m, creating a clear valuation gap that sources identify as the main sticking point in negotiations.
- Barcelona and Arsenal are also linked as potential suitors, so next steps hinge on renewed contact between Inter and Tottenham and whether Inter can match Spurs’ valuation or agree a purchase trigger.
