Cristian Romero has admitted he "wasn't perfect" during his five years at Tottenham Hotspur as he closes in on a move to Atletico Madrid, according to the BBC.
The Argentine defender, who joined Spurs in 2021, looks set to leave north London for the Spanish capital, bringing an end to a stint that saw its share of ups and downs. Romero's reflective comments suggest an honest self-assessment of his time in England rather than a bitter farewell, though full details of his exit and the terms of the Atletico switch have yet to be confirmed.
While the report doesn't outline the specifics of the transfer fee or contract length, it's understood the move is progressing toward completion. Romero's departure would mark the end of an eventful chapter at Tottenham, where he became a key, if occasionally divisive, figure in defence.
