Tottenham Reject Arsenal’s Reported Move for Captain Cristian Romero

Tottenham Reject Arsenal’s Reported Move for Captain Cristian Romero — 1 of 3
1 / 3

Tottenham Hotspur have rejected Arsenal's reported inquiry for captain Cristian Romero, with the club unwilling to sell to their North London rivals. Arsenal are reportedly assessing defensive options after William Saliba suffered a serious back injury during the World Cup. Aston Villa's Ezri Konsa is also said to be on the Gunners' shortlist, although Villa reportedly want about £60 million. Romero could still leave Tottenham for a club outside England. Inter Milan have reportedly had a €40 million offer accepted, but personal terms have yet to be agreed, while Atletico Madrid are also monitoring the Argentine defender.

Do you think Arsenal should focus on a proven replacement or give a current squad option more responsibility?

A North London club rejecting an inquiry for its captain is hardly surprising, especially with Arsenal assessing defensive cover.

Romero may be a strong defender, but Arsenal should not let one reported option dominate the conversation around replacing Saliba.

Arsenal need to widen the search quickly and prioritize a defender who can handle the immediate pressure of Saliba's absence.
