‘Daniel Levy to blame’ as Cristian Romero exit edges closer at Tottenham
Daniel Levy will have the finger pointed at him this summer if Cristian Romero departs Tottenham.
Tottenham will be no strangers to this claim, but this summer is going to be huge for their chances of progressing.
As well as they fared in the Europa League, a 17th-placed finish in the Premier League is not a good look, and it showcases just how much work is needed in the coming months.
Recruitment in North London is going to be crucial, but Levy’s reluctance to accept the current situation is going to have some drastic knock-on effects heading into the summer.
Ange Postecoglou uncertainty is causing issues
The future of Ange Postecoglou remains up in the air at Tottenham, though the general consensus is that he will be sacked.
However, the lack of clarity over his situation will not only put off potential signings, but also cast doubt into the minds of players currently at the club.

Atletico Madrid remain keen on signing Romero, and the Argentine isn’t likely to hang around much longer to await the fate of Postecoglou.
At a crucial point in his career, Romero will need assurances, and at the very least, know who he will be playing under next season.
Levy still hasn’t made a decision, and his reluctance to accept the inevitable is slowing down the plans at Tottenham, which will massively affect what they can do this summer.
Tottenham need to sack Postecoglou
Sacking a manager after he ended your 17-year trophy drought may be harsh, but Tottenham have just finished 17th in the league.
That alone is a showcase of the regression under his stewardship, and there are no indications that he will do any better next season.
Spurs would be taking a huge risk by keeping him, and should a few bad results go against them, the rumours would persist, and that would do nothing to help the club progress.
Postecoglou has run his course, and it’s time for Levy to accept that and pull the trigger.
