'Son Heung-min's replacement captain'The transfer rumor of Christian Romero (Tottenham) ended almost at the beginning of the season.
Tottenham announced on its official channel on the 19th that it had signed a long-term contract with Romero. According to a report by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the contract runs through June 2029. Romano added: "Tottenham manager Thomas Frank regarded Guti (Romero) as key to the new project"I was linked with Atletico Madrid, but I was never close to a transfer. "
Romero joined Tottenham in August 2021 on a season-long loan from Atalanta, Italy, and made a full transfer the following year. Romero, who was appointed as the new captain by Frank ahead of the European Super Cup final earlier this month, has so far scored eight goals in a total of 126 appearances in Tottenham's uniform.
Argentine Romero, who is considered one of the league's highest-level defenders, was appointed as vice-captain to assist Son Heung-min, who was then appointed as captain, in August 2023 and led the squad for two years.
He won the European Europa League title in the 2024-2025 season and received the best player award of the tournament. Fellows Guglielmo Vicario, Pedro Porro and Dominic Solanke were also selected as the Europa League team of the year.
Romero led his team to a 3-0 victory in the opening match of the English Premier League against Burnley on the 17th, playing full-time in the captain's armband for 90 minutes. The era of Romero has now opened for Tottenham.
