Overview
- Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi confirmed on Friday that Cristian Romero, cleared by club medical staff, travelled to Argentina and will not be present for Sunday’s match against Everton.
- Romero has been sidelined since suffering a knee injury in April and was ruled out for the remainder of Spurs’ season before departing to continue rehabilitation.
- Belgrano posted video of Romero at their training ground and he is expected to attend the club’s title decider with River Plate, a choice that has drawn strong anger from Tottenham supporters on social media.
- Spanish media have linked Romero with summer moves to Barcelona and Atlético Madrid and have reported a reported €60m release clause, though transfer interest and specific deal terms remain unconfirmed.
- Tottenham go into the final day two points above the relegation zone and De Zerbi has urged the squad to focus on securing the result that would keep the club in the Premier League while naming Dominic Solanke available for selection.
