Frank wanted Romero future guarantee before taking job​

Latest from Sky Sports News' Michael Bridge:

Sky Sports News
understands the future of Cristian Romero was key to discussions with Thomas Frank when he was appointed as Ange Postecoglou's successor at the club.

Tottenham did not consider Atletico Madrid's interest in Cristian Romero and keeping the defender was a priority this summer.

Frank chose to make Romero captain when it was decided that Heung-Min Son was leaving.

Romero is believed to be extremely happy with the way things have gone in the first few months under Frank.

I’m not saying this is bullshit but this club does love a story like this.
 
Pretty sure it's a non-story tbh. Romano posted this yesterday.

"Manchester City closing doors to exit but in case of improved proposal, stance could change."

Nothing has changed. Likely just trying to pressure us into paying more. City do not keep players that want out.

Whether or not we should be paying £65-70m on him is another matter entirely.


We will try once more, are my thoughts, especially if Frank believes it is essential.for what he is trying to build.
 
Might depend upon whether Frank wants to play Eze filling the LW position playing as the 10 in order to have a more solid 3 in midfield - Palhinha, Bentancur and Sarr or Bergvall .

Agree, but Savinho would do things none of those are capable of.

Watching Mbuemo yesterday, you could see why Frank might want a Savinho type on one side, with a pure goalscorer like Johnson on the other. Killer combo.

‘’Not just him mate, his wife also arranging goodbyes ( ederson )

He will be gone, as will Rico and Savinho.

About £110m in total"
