Atlético prepares €30 million offer for Cuti Romero amid Inter talks

Atlético de Madrid is set to submit a €30 million bid for Cristian ‘Cuti’ Romero as discussions with Inter Milan stall. After initial negotiations with Tottenham Hotspur last summer failed, Atlético plans to capitalize on Romero's desire to play in Spain. Tottenham has accepted a €40 million offer from Inter, complicating Atlético’s approach. However, the Spanish club is reportedly finalizing player sales to clear wage space, including the anticipated exits of Matteo Ruggeri and Nahuel Molina. Atlético manager Diego Simeone seeks to bolster his defensive lineup, emphasizing Romero's skill set as a perfect fit for the team’s needs.
