Tottenham may have new Cristian Romero hope after Europa League win – Fabrizio Romano

Fabrizio Romano has revealed whether Tottenham’s chances of holding onto Cristian Romero have improved after their historic Europa League success on Wednesday, as the speculation continues to run rife about the Argentine’s future.

According to various reports, Diego Simeone has been in regular contact with Romero over recent weeks regarding a summer switch to Atletico Madrid.

However, it is fair to say that his future would not have preoccupied the Argentine’s thinking over the last few days after he created history at Tottenham Hotspur by helping the club lift their first trophy in 17 years.

Romero reacted emotionally to the Europa League win, thanking Spurs fans for continuing to believe that this side could do something special when the outside world did not.

Tottenham handed Cristian Romero boost by Fabrizio Romano

Some Spurs fans may fear that the centre-back’s words might be a parting message, given that various outlets over recent weeks have claimed that Romero has his heart set on a move to Atletico Madrid.

However, with Tottenham securing Champions League football next season, the club might be hoping that their vice-captain can be persuaded to stay.

Fabrizio Romano has now handed Spurs’ chances of keeping Romero a boost by telling Men in Blazers that the centre-back’s future is not settled just yet.

The transfer market expert has insisted that Tottenham’s Europa League victory could have an impact on the 27-year-old’s upcoming decision on his future.

Will Spurs try again to tie Romero to a new contract?

It was first reported back in February that Tottenham are prepared to make Romero their highest-paid player to get him to commit to a new deal.

Various outlets have also been claiming that the reason Romero was hesitant to sign was that he wants to play in the Champions League.

Now that Spurs have made it back into the Champions League, one would expect Daniel Levy and co to test the waters again to see if the Argentine has changed his mind regarding a new contract.
