Spurs had previously negotiated a €40m amount with Napoli for Cristian Romero, but the player did not agree to personal terms.

Napoli is seeking defensive reinforcements and considers Tottenham's 28-year-old Argentine centre-back, Cristian Romero, a potential target. According to recent reports from July 2026, Tottenham's asking price is around €59 million, although the club may accept €47 million. Romero, who previously played in Serie A for Genoa and Atalanta, is under contract with Tottenham until June 2029.
