King moots behind-the-scenes issues with big-name Tottenham star amid transfer speculation

John Wenham has speculated that issues could arise behind the scenes if Cristian Romero refuses to commit his future to Tottenham.

The owner of the reputable Spurs podcast Lilywhite Rose thinks the North London club could be forced to sell the World Cup winner next summer.

Romero is widely rumoured to be leaving Spurs at the end of the season, with Inter Milan’s Yan Bisseck reportedly lined up as a potential replacement (via Inter Live, 10 November).

Therefore, Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – claims things could turn sour before the season ends.

“We’re seeing a lot of talk now about Romero potentially leaving the club,” Wenham said.

“Therefore, that leaves Spurs in a position where they might be forced to sell him next summer. However, the good news is he’s worth at least double what the club paid for him.

“He’s become a World Cup winner since joining Spurs, he’s gained Premier League experience.

“I do wonder if some issues might arise behind the scenes before the season ends should Romero refuse to commit his future to the club, and if we will see Radu Drăgușin perhaps given an extended run in the side.”

Cristian Romero to quit Tottenham next summer?

Romero’s contract with Tottenham expires in 2027. Therefore, if the 26-year-old doesn’t commit his long-term future to the club by next summer, Daniel Levy and Spurs will have a decision to make.

If it appears as though Romero has no interest in signing a new deal, then Spurs would perhaps be wise to cash in at the moment, to avoid the centre-back’s value decreasing.

And should that stance become clear as the season progresses, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Romero phased out of Ange Postecoglou’s plans.

However, after what Jamie O’Hara said about the defender recently, it doesn’t appear as though that would be such an issue.

In other Tottenham news, the club are interested in a Premier League defender as a brand-new transfer update emerges.
