Cristian Romero has confirmed his departure from Tottenham, with Atletico Madrid expected to formally announce the transfer soon, according to Sky Sports.
The Argentina centre-back had been strongly linked with a move away from north London throughout the summer, despite having a contract at Spurs running until 2029. Romero chose to break the news himself, posting a statement on Instagram ahead of any official club confirmation.
During his time at Tottenham, Romero made 124 appearances for the club, establishing himself as a key figure in defence and, per Sky Sports, serving as captain. His exit marks the end of a significant chapter at the club as he prepares for a new challenge in La Liga with Atletico Madrid.
