Tottenham transfer blow as Cristian Romero ‘offered return to former club’ in stunning summer switch
JUVENTUS want to re-sign Cristian Romero this summer, according to reports.
Romero joined the Serie A giants in a £24.5million transfer from Genoa in 2019, but he failed to make a single first-team appearance.

Instead, he was loaned out twice before eventually joining Atalanta.
The defender signed for Tottenham on a permanent basis last summer following a season-long and has since endured a mixed spell.
He won the World Cup with Argentina in December, but his form for Spurs has been inconsistent.
And now he is being linked with a move away from North London.
According to Argentinian journalist Gaston Edul, Juventus want to bring Romero back to Italy this summer.
The Serie A side have not yet approached Tottenham to discuss an offer.
Romero has four years remaining on his current contract, so Tottenham will likely set a huge asking price should Juventus make an approach.
Juventus are open to offers for both Alex Sandro and Gleison Bremer this summer, so they could table a bid if either player is sold.
