Tottenham Faces Relegation Battle at 16th in the Premier League
This season has been challenging for Tottenham, as they currently sit 16th in the Premier League table. The struggling performance has led some key players at Hotspur Way to consider leaving the club.
With no Champions League football in sight, several top clubs in Europe are eyeing Tottenham’s players, which may encourage them to seek opportunities elsewhere.
Atletico Madrid Interested in Tottenham Players
Recent reports from Spain, via Fichajes, indicate that Atletico Madrid is looking at acquiring a few Tottenham players to capitalize on the situation at the club. Pedro Porro and Cristian Romero have been identified as potential targets for next summer.
Romero was linked with a transfer to Madrid last summer but chose to remain at Tottenham, where he has taken on the captaincy. However, the team’s disappointing performance this season and the ongoing instability have led to renewed transfer rumors.
Romero has appeared unsettled this season, and his lack of discipline has frustrated fans, as he is expected to provide stability at the club.
That said, Tottenham has him under a long-term contract, meaning they would expect substantial financial offers for the 27-year-old.
In addition to Romero, right-back Pedro Porro is also on Atletico Madrid’s list. Porro adds offensive strength from the flanks, which enhances tactical options for any team.
Tottenham invested significantly to acquire Porro on a permanent basis, so they are not compelled to sell. However, given the current struggles and the threat of relegation, interest from a club with a consistent Champions League presence could push the 26-year-old to reconsider his future.
Possible Outcomes for Tottenham
From Tottenham’s viewpoint, their season’s outcome will likely influence whether they can maintain their status in the Premier League. Keeping their league position will be crucial moving forward.
