Romero Leaves Spurs With Pride | UK News

Cristian Romero is leaving Tottenham for Atletico Madrid in a £34 million deal, marking the end of a five-year stint where he became a cornerstone at center-back with 156 appearances. His departure follows an injury-riddled season and a controversial trip home to Argentina — though he returned for a vital win that secured Tottenham’s Premier League survival. Despite acknowledging he wasn’t flawless, Romero proudly defended his commitment, crediting his time at Spurs with helping him achieve his biggest dream: lifting the Europa League trophy in 2025 — the club’s first silverware in 17 years, defeating Manchester United in the final. He leaves with deep gratitude, calling himself “one of them” and thanking fans with love and respect, knowing a piece of his heart will always stay at White Hart Lane.
