Tottenham: Cristian Romero back in England for Everton game

Advertisements

Club captain Cristian Romero has returned to London from Argentina for Tottenham Hotspur‘s crunch final match of the Premier League season at home to Everton.

The 28-year-old, who was ruled out of the game because of a knee injury, was expected to watch his boyhood club Belgrano play River Plate in the Argentina Primera Division Apertura final on Sunday.

However, the defender is instead at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where a win for the home side will guarantee Premier League survival and a draw will also realistically be enough because of their vastly superior goal difference compared to West Ham United’s.

Earlier this week, head coach Roberto de Zerbi defended his captain’s expected absence from the game but also said he “100%” understood why fans were upset about it.

De Zerbi added that the decision for Romero, who is racing to be fit for the World Cup, to return to Argentina to continue his rehabilitation was agreed with the club’s medical staff.
