Tottenham captain Cristian Romero has been criticised for flying back to Argentina ahead of their final-day Premier League relegation decider against Everton. The injured defender recently travelled home to watch his boyhood club, Belgrano, in a historic championship decider against River Plate on Sunday.
Reacting, broadcaster Paul Hawksbee was clinical in his assessment of the Tottenham defender, suggesting that the player’s priorities lay far away from the Premier League survival scrap.
Paul added that watching his boyhood club as opposed to the club he captains is a terrible decision by Romero
His words, “Good club captain, then. Not at Tottenham’s biggest game since 1976 – fantastic. True to the end, good old Cristian. I’ll be wearing my River Plate shirt at the weekend. I think that’s terrible.
He goes and watches the club he supports as opposed to the club captain of a team that’s threatened with relegation, where he’s not there with the lads and all the other injured players.
But you know, I mean, as I said, it’s true at the end; I always thought that Cristian Romero was just passing through and that Tottenham were a distraction from Argentina. But I am quite bitter.”
WOW.
