Tottenham officials reject Real Madrid's proposal for Romero - Paul Vegas

Real chiefs are actively looking for a new centre-half and fullback following Dani Carvajal's unfortunate double knee injury last week.

Romero is regarded as a priority target, with Real directors agreeing with those who claim him to be among the best centre-halves in the world.

However, the Mirror says Spurs have no interest in losing Romero and are confident of resisting all offers in January and next summer.
