WARNING: El Cholo Simeone has already contacted Cuti Romero

Cholo Simeone is clear that he needs to strengthen his defense for the upcoming season, and one of the names that seduce him the most is Cuti Romero. The Argentine center-back, a key piece at Tottenham, has been on the radar of Atlético de Madrid for weeks and has become one of the top priorities of the colchonero coach. So much so that the coach has already taken the initiative and has directly spoken with the player to try to convince him to join his project.

Cuti Romero, desire of Cholo Simeone

The 26-year-old defender is one of the most solid defenders in the Premier League. His aggressiveness in marking, his ability to anticipate plays, and his leadership on the field have made him a fundamental piece in the London team's scheme. Furthermore, his style of play would fit perfectly with the intensity and defensive solidity that characterizes teams managed by Simeone.

Atlético de Madrid knows that negotiating with Tottenham will not be easy, as the English club has no intention of parting ways with one of its most valuable players. However, the possibility of Romero landing in LaLiga and playing under the orders of his compatriot could be a key factor in the operation. The rojiblanca board is studying an offer that can convince the Spurs and bring the Argentine closer to the Metropolitano.

The interest is mutual, but everything will depend on the figures handled in the market. Cuti's predisposition to listen to the colchonero proposal is a point in favor of Atlético, which will do everything possible to make him the leader of their defense in the upcoming season.
