Done for season
Romero (knee) is out for the rest of the league season due to a partial tear in his MCL, according to Sami Mokbel of BBC.
Analysis: Romero was likely to miss the rest of the season after Sunday's knee injury, but it is now official, only needing further confirmation from his club. The major concern for the defender moving forward is his prospects for the World Cup, as an expected recovery time is around eight weeks, with Argentina starting play on June 16. As a crucial defender for Argentina, he will hope to recover in time. On the other hand, Tottenham's season continues to take turns for the worse, now without another regular starter as relegation becomes more imminent. This will force them to rely on Radu Dragusin and Kevin Danso more heading into the final games of the season.
Out at least five weeks
Romero (knee) is expected to be sidelined for five to eight weeks, according to Martin Arevalo.
Analysis: Romero is expected to be sidelined for five to eight weeks after suffering a knee injury in the last match against Sunderland and is likely to miss the remainder of the Premier League season, though he is projected to be fit in time for the World Cup. The center back has been a key piece in the back line, starting 30 of his 31 appearances across all competitions while recording 58 tackles, 30 interceptions and 94 clearances, making his absence a significant blow, with Radu Dragusin and Kevin Danso in line for increased roles in central defense.
