Atlético's last bullet to sign Cuti Romero

Atlético de Madrid does not give up and is preparing a final move to sign Cristian "Cuti" Romero, the Argentine defender who is at the top of Diego Pablo Simeone's priority list to strengthen his defense. Despite the economic difficulties and Tottenham's firm stance, the red and white club wants to push its options with a proposal that comes very close to the English team's demands.

The offer that Atlético intends to present includes a base amount of €70 million, accompanied by another €10 million in achievable objectives. Although Spurs have set their price at €80 million net, at the Metropolitano, they trust that the player's desire to wear the red and white shirt and his good relationship with the Argentine coach could tip the balance.

The financing of this operation is not a minor issue. The recent departures of players like Samu Lino have left significant income in the club's coffers, but the big economic move will depend on another key sale: that of Conor Gallagher. The Englishman, wanted by several Premier League teams, could be the decisive factor in releasing the necessary resources to close Romero's signing.

Although negotiations have slowed down in recent weeks, the interest remains alive, and the willingness of the world champion defender keeps the conversations afloat. Simeone believes that the Argentine is the ideal profile to bring hierarchy to a defense that aims to compete at the highest level this season. In the Atlético's offices, there is moderate optimism: they know it won't be easy, but they believe there is still an open window to finalize the signing.
