Tottenham Hotspur is facing a significant blow as their captain, Cristian Romero, is believed to be sidelined for the remainder of the season. The defender sustained what is thought to be medial knee ligament damage during Sunday’s 1-0 defeat to Sunderland.
Romero was visibly distressed, seen in tears as he was substituted in the 70th minute. The injury occurred after a collision with Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey, which subsequently sent the Argentinian crashing into his own goalkeeper, Antonin Kinsky.
Initial assessments suggest an estimated eight-week recovery period for the knee injury. This development intensifies Tottenham’s existing relegation concerns and casts a shadow over Romero’s availability for the upcoming World Cup.
