Tottenham defender Cristian Romero has offered a forthright reflection on his future at the club, amid increasing speculation surrounding a potential departure.
Romero, a key figure for both club and country, has endured a challenging season disrupted by injury setbacks, including hamstring and toe issues that have kept him sidelined for significant stretches. His return to action is being managed cautiously, and he was withdrawn at half-time during Tottenham’s recent defeat to Nottingham Forest—a result that leaves Spurs languishing in 16th place in the Premier League.
Despite a difficult domestic campaign, Tottenham have reached the semi-finals of the Europa League, where they are set to face Norwegian side Bodo-Glimt. Romero is expected to play an integral role in the club’s pursuit of European silverware.
In recent months, the Argentine international has been linked with moves to La Liga, with both Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid reportedly monitoring his situation. Reports suggest that Tottenham may be forced to consider a sale should certain conditions be met.
Speaking to the media, Romero was transparent about his current mindset and future ambitions.
“I try, above all things, to always live day to day,” he stated. “There are almost two months left of the season, and I want to perform at my best and try to finish it in the best way possible.”
While he stopped short of committing his future to Tottenham beyond the current campaign, Romero emphasized his desire for personal and professional development.
“The truth is that I have not spoken with my agent yet, but I am willing to do anything. My focus is always on growing and looking for new places to continue developing, but I don’t want to talk about that yet because there are a few months left to finish the season.”
In a further comment likely to attract attention in Spain, Romero added:
“I’d love to play in the Spanish league. I’d love to compete in all the top leagues.”
Romero’s remarks suggest that while he remains committed to giving his best for Tottenham during the remainder of the season, he is also open to exploring new opportunities in the future—particularly in La Liga.
As speculation continues to build, Romero’s future may well depend on Tottenham’s performance in Europe and their final standing in the Premier League table.
