Tottenham Hotspur have been able to bolster their squad over the summer with five additions in the transfer market.
One of those signings won’t arrive at Tottenham , however, until January with Yang Min-hyeok having returned back to Gangwon FC for the remainder of their season.
But Ange Postecoglou has seen Johan Lange provide him with the likes of Archie Gray and Dominic Solanke.
One of the other summer signings also showed his worth on Saturday with Heung-min Son left really impressed by Wilson Odobert’s Tottenham debut .
As well as impressive performances from some of their new signings, there was also some stunning displays from the likes of Cristian Romero.And there are now plans expected to be put in place regarding the Argentina international with interest beginning to grow in his services.There is one major player who is now playing into his final year at Tottenham with talks underway to extend Heung-min Son’s deal .However, there may well be some concerns over the future of the ‘exceptional’ Romero with Real Madrid beginning to show their interest .
But Sky Sports journalist Michael Bridge now thinks there will be plans in place to secure the Argentine down in north London over the coming months.Speaking on the Last Word on Spurs , Bridge hailed Romero’s display on Saturday as he got on the scoresheet on what was his 100 Spurs appearance.
“It wouldn’t surprise me, Spurs during the season are going to sit down and speak to Cristian Romero. He’s he’s an immense defender,” said Bridge . “I don’t think he, in terms of cards, he’s not as erratic where he used to be before Postecoglou. I would like to see him be more of a leader sometimes.”
“Romero, who knows he’s a he’s an immense defender, he’s bound to get some interest as the months drag on.”
Tottenham need to win a trophy to keep Cristian Romero
Having a centre-back pairing of Micky van de Ven and Romero is something which teams across Europe will be seriously envious of.
And it does seem as if the likes of Madrid would like to break up that partnership by bringing in Romero over the coming transfer windows.Naturally, Spurs will want to keep ahold of Romero or at the very least protect their asset who currently has three years left on his deal.
Romero has been hailed by Van de Ven and Solanke for his performance on the weekend but this is, afterall, a player who has now won two Copa Americas and a World Cup.
The Argentine will now be wanting to win club trophies and it is now beginning to feel like Tottenham will need to get their hands on silverware if they want to see Romero stick about.
