Cristian Romero’s future at Tottenham Hotspur has been up for debate following the departure of Ange Postecoglou.

Romero has been linked to Atletico Madrid this summer, which has left supporters feeling concerned that they could lose their best player.

Thomas Frank will be eager to keep him, given his importance to Tottenham Hotspur and his role as vice-captain.

The 27-year-old’s latest social media post has now suggested that his future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this summer could well have been decided.

Tottenham fans think Cristian Romero is staying at Tottenham

Cristian Romero has just posted his return to Hotspur Way on his Instagram account, and the defender looks buzzing to be back at Tottenham.

The 27-year-old is certainly not showing any signs of being upset about Tottenham’s strong stance over keeping him amid interest from Spain.

The club’s supporters are now adamant that the World Cup winner will be staying at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for at least another season.

There has been much speculation over his future this summer, but it seems as though clarity is starting to emerge, suggesting that he will stay.

TBR Football understands that Atletico Madrid have backed away from Romero, having made an unsuccessful play to prise him away from Spurs.

Tottenham told Atletico that Romero would cost £70m, and it appears that Diego Simeone’s side have little interest in paying such an amount.

Spurs’ vice-captain is now back in training and looks delighted to have made his return to N17, which has sent fans into a frenzy on X.

One fan said: “For me, it’s something so important that he’s this happy, he just had to win something, the crazy guy.”

Another claimed: “But I thought he would leave and the club would crumble when Ange left? Some of our fans are childish.”

“He knows we’re going huge this summer,” claimed another supporter.

There was further praise for the club’s vice captain: “I think more people would be willing to acknowledge him as our best player if they weren’t so worried he wasn’t gonna be around much longer. He completely changes how effective our team is.”

Frank wants to build around Romero, so managing to keep hold of him would be an early welcome boost in North London.

Having a partnership of him and Micky van de Ven in the Dane’s more regimented system should make Spurs a tough nut to crack.

Thomas Frank needs to make Cristian Romero captain

Romero’s performance in the Europa League final was quite exceptional as the defender helped Spurs to keep a clean sheet and win their first title in 17 years.

The Argentine international was made captain with Son Heung-min starting on the bench and he took the role on with immense responsibility.

He led by example at the San Mames Stadium with a superb display, which saw him win the UEFA Player of the Match award and rightfully so.

Romero stood up when it mattered most for Tottenham and that’s why he is now one of the most decorated defenders in Europe.

Son is unlikely to leave Tottenham soon, but the Lilywhites need to consider making Romero the captain when the 33-year-old does eventually depart.
