Video: Cristian Romero spotted walking around London in bandage after Tottenham injury
A video of Cristian Romero walking down London streets has emerged after the severity of the Tottenham captain’s knee injury was confirmed on Monday.
There were fears that Romero had suffered significant ligament damage as the centre-back was in tears as he came off in the second half of Tottenham’s 1-0 loss at Sunderland after his knee collided with the side of Antonin Kinsky’s face.
Roberto De Zerbi admitted after the game that Tottenham needed Romero amidst their relegation battle, but the Italian got some bad news regarding the Argentine on Monday.
The scan’s results revealed that the Spurs captain was set to spend five to eight weeks on the sidelines, which means that his season could now be over.

The provided timeline of five to eight weeks potentially gives the centre-back a small chance of featuring for Tottenham again this season, with the club playing their final league game against Everton on May 24.
A video has now surfaced on social media showing the centre-back walking down a London street, and his right knee is heavily bandaged.
However, the one silver lining for Spurs fans is the fact that the World Cup winner appears to be walking freely without any pain or discomfort.
Can Spurs stay up without Romero?
Truth be told, like most players in the Tottenham squad, Romero has been a long way off his best for much of the season.

Kevin Danso has delivered whenever he has been called upon by Spurs this term, which is why there is an argument to be made that the Lilywhites are not significantly weakened by their captain’s injury.
However, Romero’s leadership will certainly be missed by Tottenham during a period of crisis, while the centre-back’s ability to play out from the back makes him a better fit for De Zerbi’s system than Danso.
