Atletico have identified Romero as their primary target and aim to secure him before the Club World Cup starts on June 15th. Spurs, fresh off their Europa League victory, are reluctant to let go of the 26-year-old, but Romero's keen interest in joining Atletico might pressure the London club. A significant price gap exists, with Spurs valuing Romero at €70 million while Atletico offers €45 million. Atletico aims to finalize the transfer before June 10th, the transfer window deadline before the Club World Cup.
