Tottenham captain Cristian Romero is set to join La Liga side Atletico Madrid, with the two clubs agreeing a £34.2m fee for the player's transfer.
The deal marks a significant development in Romero's career, as he prepares to leave the English Premier League for Spain's top division.
Atletico Madrid, one of the prominent teams in La Liga, has been actively strengthening its squad, and the addition of Romero is expected to bolster their defensive lineup.
As the transfer is finalized, Romero will be leaving behind his role as captain at Tottenham, where he has been an integral part of the team.
Further details about the transfer, including the length of Romero's contract with Atletico Madrid, are yet to be disclosed.
The transfer market has seen significant activity in recent times, with top clubs across Europe seeking to reinforce their squads ahead of the new season.
