Tottenham Hotspur have passed another hurdle in their attempts to sign Cristian Romero with Atalanta on the verge of landing Merih Demiral from Serie A rivals Juventus, as reported by Tuttomercatoweb.
In short, this means Atalanta have all but secured the signature of a man who would replace Romero at the heart of Gian Piero Gasperini’s back line.
An agreement between La Dea
and Juve was being finalised this afternoon, Demiral heading to Bergamo on loan with an option-to-buy clause of about £25 million expected to be included in his contract (Sky Italia).
