Cristian Romero’s new injury could sideline him for six weeks, leaving Tottenham in a tough spot as they face crucial matches ahead.
London: Cristian Romero is in a bit of a pickle after picking up a new injury. He’s worried he might be out until the end of January, which is a real blow for Tottenham.
He just came back from a bruised toe and played against Chelsea, but he barely lasted 15 minutes before going down again. Spurs ended up losing 4-3, which is a tough pill to swallow.
After the match, manager Ange Postecoglou expressed his disappointment. He mentioned that Romero felt something in his quad, which is just bad luck given how well he trained before the game.
Reports say Romero is expected to be out for about six weeks. This means he’ll miss some big matches, including the Carabao Cup quarter-final against Manchester United and the Premier League clash with Liverpool.
If he’s out for that long, he might return just in time for a league match against Leicester on January 26. Fingers crossed he heals up quickly!
