What happened. Arsenal are monitoring Cristian Romero's situation at Tottenham, with the defender linked to Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan. Inter reportedly have a broad agreement with Spurs worth around £40m including add-ons.

• Tottenham are 'unaware' of Arsenal's interest, per The Athletic.
• Spurs are unlikely to sell their captain to a direct rival.
• Atletico Madrid, coached by Romero's compatriot, are also interested.

Romero's future remains uncertain with multiple clubs circling, but a move to Arsenal seems slim.
