Reporter: Frank talks with Romero to renew his contract, Tottenham wants him to be the top salary in the team

August 17th news Tottenham coach Thomas Frank has held talks with Romero on his long-term future with the team.

Tottenham is willing to make the Argentine international the most paid player on the team, and the two sides have been negotiating new contracts since February this year. Previously, Atletico Madrid showed strong interest in Romero this summer, but ultimately failed to reach an agreement. Romero, 27, chose to stay in North London, and an active dialogue with Frank could bring renewal back on the agenda.

According to TBR Football chief reporter Graeme Bailey, after appointing Romero as captain, Tottenham Hotspur is very eager to sign a new contract with him. Romero called Frank a "good coach" in an interview and said he was honored to be selected as captain.

Speaking of the decision to appoint Romero as captain, Bailey said: "Obviously, since Romero learned that he would not leave the team, he has been very good. He was the leader of the team. Therefore, from what I know, this decision is obvious."

The World Cup winner was impressed by what Frank said so far, and if the season starts well, it will greatly increase his chances of renewing his contract. Currently, Romero's contract expires in the summer of 2027, and Tottenham hopes he can sign a new contract to make him the club's highest-paid player.

Regarding the new contract, Bailey added: "Frank has had a talk with Romero and he is very happy with what he heard. Whether this will help convince him to sign a new contract will certainly help. This is the result that the club really wants. They hope he can sign this new contract. If the new season starts well, I don't think it's too far."

Frank has been struggling to get Romero's support, and the defender seems to have accepted his life at Tottenham. In addition, TBR Football also revealed that Tottenham is also negotiating a new contract with Rodrigo Bentancur, and the new coach is also very satisfied with his performance.

Frank praised the new captain and thought he was "very engaged" at Tottenham. The Danes claimed that his coaching team told him they had never seen him work so hard in training.

In an interview with the media, Frank said: "I have been working closely with him for more than five weeks, and I have seen a player who is very dedicated and very good in training. The staff told me that they have never seen him train so well. He is in very good shape now. What I see is a player who is eager to lead the team forward."
