Cristian Romero opens up on injury frustrations

Cristian Romero has reve꧒aled his frustration at how long it took for him to get back fit and how he had t🌄o return to Argentina to work with the national team’s medical staff.

The 26-year-old says he should have ret🍸urned sooner than he did, however, further complications delayed him getting back on the pitch.

Romero, who cost £42m, told : ♐“I didn’t have a good few months because it was an injury that I could have returned much sooner from, but nothing happened. Everything became very complicated.

“I’m always grateful that the national team’s medical team was able to get me out of that bad moment an🍒d get me back on the field, which is what I like to do, what makes me happy. I’m grateful to the national team’s physiotherapist for getting me back on the field.”

Will Cristian Romero sign a new contract at Tottenham?

⛄Tottenham want Ro🌟mero to become their highest earner with his current contract due to run until 2027 and t♉here being big interest from major European clubs.

Real Madrid are keen on Romero and another season of no Champions League football could force him to push for a move ♛away from North London.

TBR Football revealed back in December that Romero wanted Champions🍨 🐷League football if he was to sign at Tottenham, however, at this stage, that looks high🅘ly unlikely.
