Real Madrid have been left to rethink their plans after long-term target Leny Yoro decided to sign for Manchester United in the summer rather than move to the Santiago Bernabeu. Not only did he cause some headaches for this season, but even going forward, Yoro was destined to be a part of their defense for most of the next decade.
Ace for GMSone of the options that Real Madrid considered as a long-term answer to the position is the defender of Tottenham Hotspur. Christian Romero. The Argentine defender has been linked to Los Blancos before, but TyCSports Gaston Edul, as reported by MDsays the move is unlikely to happen, after Tottenham said they are not interested in selling him.
Real Madrid had made a bid for Romero, but Edul says the €175m asking price Spurs placed on his head spooked the Los Blancos. At 26, Romero is in his prime, and English sources say that Real Madrid can also test Tottenham's determination with an offer next summer.
Their modus operandi tends to be to get the green light from the player first, long before they make an offer. It was the case of Yoro, Endrick Felipe, and now Alphonso Davies. So Spurs will no doubt be on the alert for any approaches from Real Madrid this summer. Romero has three years since his deal, and is one of the best in the world at his position, with Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba already thirty years old.
