Cristian Romero breaks silence with emotional message after Tottenham return
Tottenham Hotspur’s Cristian Romero has sent a heartfelt message to Spurs fans and the Argentina team physios after his long-awaited return.
Tottenham’s defensive struggles this season have been well-documented, and Cristian Romero’s absence only made matters worse.
Romero has spent 86 days on the sidelines, missing 27 games in all competitions. In that time, Spurs have tumbled out of both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup, while their Premier League form has taken a nosedive, leaving them in 13th place.
His prolonged absence did not go unnoticed, and as the weeks turned into months, some Tottenham fans began to question the Argentine’s commitment to the club.
The frustration only grew when Romero received an Argentina call-up despite not having played for Spurs since sustaining his injury against Chelsea back in December. His return, however, finally puts an end to those concerns.
Cristian Romero’s heartfelt message to Tottenham fans
Now back in action, Romero took to social media to reflect on his time out and express his gratitude. In a post on X, he described the past few months as one of the hardest spells of his career.
“After a difficult period full of things that happened in between, I am back with the group and happy to be able to help the team. There is certainly a lot to correct and work on, but we are together and eager to reverse this situation. See you on Thursday, we will come back stronger than ever, all together Spurs.
“Thankful to the physios at Argentina for getting me out of a bad moment and putting me back on the field where I am so happy. Thank you all for your continued support.”
His words will likely come as reassurance to those who doubted his commitment, with the centre-back now firmly focused on helping Spurs turn their season around.
Romero’s impact and the road ahead
Romero’s return saw him make his first start in nearly three months, with his last appearance coming in that fateful match against Chelsea.
Against Bournemouth, it was evident he lacked sharpness, particularly in the early stages, as some of his passing was uncharacteristically sloppy. However, getting those minutes under his belt will have been invaluable.
For both Romero and Ange Postecoglou, the priority now is ensuring he stays fit and builds up momentum.
With a crucial Europa League tie on the horizon, Tottenham need their defensive leader at his best. Spurs fans will hope this is the start of a strong and uninterrupted run in the side, one that helps steady the ship after a turbulent few months.
