Real Madrid are sensing an opportunity to pull off a major heist from Tottenham Hotspur this summer.
Spurs are teetering on the edge of relegation this season, and reports indicate that Tottenham will take a crippling financial hit if they go down this season.
In fact, a mass exodus is expected from Spurs should they get relegated, with several clubs circling over their biggest stars.
It has now emerged that Real Madrid are waiting to pounce should the unimaginable happen to the Lilywhites this season.
Real Madrid eyeing three Tottenham defenders
Fichajes have revealed that Madrid are closely monitoring the developments at the bottom of the Premier League as ‘Tottenham are dangerously close to the edge’.
Los Blancos are sensing an ‘unparalleled market opportunity’ to take advantage of Spurs’ turmoil and land Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, and Pedro Porro if the North Londoners go down.
The belief in the Spanish capital is that all three players would be available ‘at a significantly reduced price’ in the summer as relegation would force a ‘liquidation of assets’ at Tottenham.
The outlet adds that Florentino Perez is preparing his chequebook to take ‘advantage of this unique scenario’ and turn Spurs’ disaster into a huge positive for the La Liga giants.
Can Spurs convince Cristian Romero or Micky van de Ven to stay?
It has been widely reported that Micky van de Ven wants to leave Tottenham this summer, irrespective of whether the club maintains its Premier League status.
Meanwhile, Romero is also wanted by elite clubs across Europe after publicly expressing his disagreement with the club’s transfer policy.
The Lilywhites may struggle to convince the pair that Tottenham can compete for the biggest trophies, given how far the club has fallen.
