Real Madrid Confidencial World Champion Star's Huge Wink at Real Madrid: 'I'd Like...'
The footballer points to what could be his next destination in the European soccer elite
Real Madrid Has Multiple Signings Pending for the Summer 2025 Market. The double defeat against Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-finals has created the need to make a series of changes in the first-team squad... which would go beyond the renewal of the coach position, currently held by Carlo Ancelotti.
Apart from the hypothetical hiring of Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid remains focused on adding players to the defensive line. The "merengue" defense is the most "punished" by injuries and free-agent departures recorded over the last nine months, making it essential to secure more additions.
One of the planned signings by the executives led by Florentino Pérez is the arrival of Trent Alexander-Arnold. The signing of Liverpool's current '66', as a free agent, would be the first step in renewing the "merengue" defense. However, to expand the resources in the center of the defense, many more discussions and debates are required at the Valdebebas offices.
Especially after the "wink" given by one of the center-backs on Real Madrid's list of potential signings. Argentine defender Cristian "Cuti" Romero has cast doubt on his future in the Premier League with some very specific words. The Argentine defender states that, with Tottenham Hotspurs, "we're in the Europa League semi-finals, I want to finish the season on a high note".
We'll See What Happens
"Afterwards, we'll see", says a footballer who "would like to play in the Spanish league to compete in all the major leagues". The signing of 'Cuti' Romero, despite that message sent to the top LaLiga teams, won't be easy if Real Madrid decides to embark on that signing.
The main obstacle to Cristian Romero's incorporation into Santiago Bernabéu locker room is the really high financial demands set from the noble area of Tottenham Stadium. Real Madrid received an indirect response to the alleged attempts to sign 'Cuti' Romero not long ago. The figure proposed from England didn't convince the Valdebebas offices.
Cristian Romero has a contract with Tottenham Hotspurs until the summer of 2027 and a market value of 55 million euros. These conditions significantly hinder his incorporation into the "merengue" sports discipline, as is the case with Dean Huijsen or William Saliba. Thus, Real Madrid has several alternatives to try to reduce the price demanded by the leaders led by Daniel Levy.
The English executive, a tough negotiator only comparable to Florentino Pérez himself, has proven to be inflexible in this regard. But the player's desire to switch from the Premier League to LaLiga, especially if he decides to sign for Real Madrid, would be the club's ace to reduce that high cost.
