Sorry to give you emotional whiplash this morning, but the news doesn’t stop for our feel-feels. According to multiple reports, newly-appointed Tottenham Hotspur club captain Cristian Romero has signed a new contract with the club!
Woooooooooooo! This IS good news! I half expected something like this the moment Cuti was named club captain, because it sure doesn’t seem like we’d have done that if he were going to try and run down his current deal or force his way out of the club this coming summer. But it sure does feel good to have this one in the bag, considering how convinced everyone was that he was going to be sold to Atletico Madrid this summer in the wake of Ange Postecoglou’s sacking.
Cuti’s one of the best players at the club even before the departure of Son Heung-Min, almost always a rock at the heart of Spurs’ defense and it’s a dang treat to have him commit his medium term future to the club. It’s holding serve, but any replacement for Cuti is unlikely to be as good as, well, Cuti currently is. So this is big, and exciting, and I’m pretty dang stoked.
Hopefully we get confirmation soon, and I’ll update this article if it comes today.
