Tottenham Dealt Major Blow as Cristian Romero Ruled Out for Season
Injury Blow for Tottenham
Tottenham have suffered a devastating setback in their fight against relegation with news that captain Cristian Romero will miss the rest of the Premier League campaign.
Romero's Horror Injury
The Argentine international sustained a serious knee injury during Sunday's narrow defeat at Sunderland, leaving new manager Roberto De Zerbi without his most influential defensive figure. The 27-year-old centre-back was forced off midway through the second half at the Stadium of Light following an incident in the penalty area.
- Cristian Romero sustained a serious knee injury
- He was pushed in the back by Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey
- Romero subsequently collided with his own goalkeeper, Antonin Kinsky
The force of the impact left Cristian Romero in significant distress, and he was eventually replaced by Kevin Danso.
Impact on Tottenham's Season
The absence of Cristian Romero will be a significant blow to Tottenham's relegation scrap, with the team relying heavily on his defensive prowess.
