Italian heavyweights Inter Milan have formally opened direct club-to-club negotiations with Tottenham Hotspur to sign defender Cristian 'Cuti' Romero.
🔍 The Negotiation Breakdown
- Ausilio Confirms Interest: Inter Sporting Director Piero Ausilio confirmed: "We are interested in signing Cuti Romero. We have met his agent and talked with Tottenham."
- Valuation Gap: Tottenham initially set an asking price around €50 million, while Inter's opening framework sits near €40 million including performance add-ons.
- Return to Serie A: Romero won Serie A Defender of the Year with Atalanta before joining Spurs in 2021, making a return to Italy a natural move for the World Cup winner.

Editor's Take
"Romero's aggressive, front-foot defending thrives in a tactical 3-back system like Inter's. If Spurs can close the deal around €45m, it allows them to fund their defensive revamp while giving Romero a clean slate."
