“Romero will be the new captain if Son departs the club,” John Wenham exclusively told Tottenham News.
“If Romero stays, that could lead to Bentancur renewing his contract, and that would be the new bedrock of Tottenham moving forward.
“I know we’ve seen those comments from Diego Simeone. However, at the moment, it doesn’t look as though Atletico are willing to pay what Romero is worth. This is a player being eyed up as the next Argentina captain.
“Therefore, selling him on the cheap is not an option, and it doesn’t look like Atletico are willing to pay the amount of money Romero is worth.”
