Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
He was linked with an exit at the start of the season, but the north London club managed to convince him to stay. However, it seems extremely likely that he will lead the club at the end of the season.
Cristian Romero wants out
The player is believed to be frustrated by the lack of ambition in the transfer market, and he recently posted an explosive message on social media criticising the club.
There have been rumours that he could leave the club in the summer, and Thomas Frank was recently questioned whether the player will be at the club next season.
Frank said via Football London: “That’s a question I have no idea about. Right now he is the captain, he has a long-term contract and we signed a new contract with him.”
Frank comments on Romero will worry fans
The Tottenham manager’s response will certainly worry the fans. It is clear that Tottenham are unsure whether the defender will stay beyond this season. He is one of the best defenders in European football right now, and he deserves to compete at the highest level. He will be hoping to win major trophies at the club level, and Spurs are not quite at that level yet.
He has been linked with a move to La Liga in recent months. It will be interesting to see where he ends up. He has won the World Cup and Copa América with Argentina, and he will now look to win the Champions League and League titles at the club level.
His departure would be a huge blow for Tottenham, and there is no doubt that he is their best defender. It will be interesting to see how they replace him.
