Tottenham commits Cristian Romero for 50 million euros - Romero born
In 2018, the Corristian Romero born in the Argentine Cordoba had opened up Belgrano Gen Italy after his hometimatstation. The goal: the CFC Genoa, in which the central defender in the for the club so disappointing season 2018/19 really flashed his talent and in the end just secured the league (point equally with relegated Empoli at the end).
The achievements quickly awakened the interest of Italy's record champion Juventus, it fined 26 million euros. But in the old lady, Romero could never claim that until the most did not have a single game. Rather, he first remained another lending year at the Genoese and could not recommend himself in the summer of 2020 under Turins Ex coach Andrea Pirlo. The competition for Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini, Matthijs de Leig or Merih Demiral was apparently significantly too big - for two million euros rental fee, therefore, Atalanta Bergamo suggested. The golden movement step for Romero, as soon visited ...
Best series A defender 2020/21 - and well-tested in a trial
Under Atalantanto-Coach Gian Piero Gasperini, the defense man was allowed to develop, at the end of a once again successful season for the Bergamaskens (renewed Champions-League qualification) on 31 Series A performances (two hits) plus seven lots in the premier class (one Gate). The breakthrough on the big stage had succeeded in he washed him into the national team at the same time. At this year's Copa America, the Argentina around Lionel Messi with a 1-0 against archrival Brazil for himself decided, Romero stood three times in the starting element - and especially important: also in the final against the Seleçao.
The international top transfers of the summer
On top of that, the still 23-year-old was chosen the best defender of the expired series-a-season - even before the stretching Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni and Milan Skriniar of Meister Inter Milan, which collapsed together only 35 goals (best value 2020/21 ). Possible reasons for this: With a huge bounce, Romero is extremely head-strong, just in a three-man defense - at Atalanta is often on the side of Berat Djimsiti and Rafael Toloi or José Palomino - perfectly towards it, shots block strong and is straight With its speed as a high-standing defense man at opposing attacks with often clean tackling (ten yellow cards in the last season).
Everything made Tottenham around the newly installed coach Nuno Espirito Santo, who was most recently at Wolverhampton also playing triple chain, noisy - and now let 50 million euros plus any bonuses flow to Bergamo. Atalanta had just brought him to € 16 million via the purchase obligation for 16 million euros - to take a whopping sum. Much money of course. But the Premier League apparently has enough in Corona times. The amount is also a kind of appreciation for the career of Romero, who said even just before his departure Gen London, "I never thought to improve me."
