The sense of commitment at Tottenham is under heavy scrutiny. While the Spurs face a critical survival match in the Premier League against Everton, their captain Cristian Romero will be noticeably absent from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday. In a surprising turn of events, Cuti has traveled 7,000 km away from London. The Argentine defender is scheduled to attend the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium in Córdoba for the Apertura final. His former club, Belgrano, is set for a monumental clash against River Plate.
Signs of a summer transfer?
This decision further emphasizes the growing rift between the London side and their captain. Having been sidelined by a knee injury for over a month, the Argentine center-back appears to be nearing the exit door. Romero, who arrived in the English capital from Atalanta in 2022, is reportedly being targeted by FC Barcelona for a move this summer.
Regarding the ethics of such a choice, one might wonder what Roberto De Zerbi thinks of the situation as he prepares for another high-pressure fixture.
