Tottenham Injury Exclusive: Crucial Update on Cristian Romero’s Return!
Tottenham defender Cristian Romero is sidelined with a challenging quadriceps injury, according to Dr. Rajpal Brar.
The injury specialist explains that due to the high demands on these muscles, the recovery process is more complex.
The Argentine international has been out of action for Spurs since their thrilling 4-3 loss to Chelsea on December 8.
Cristian Romero Set for a Few More Weeks on the Sidelines
The 26-year-old has been a key figure in Ange Postecoglou’s squad, and his leadership at the back has been sorely missed.
Having already been without him for the past two months, Spurs will now have to cope for a little while longer as his recovery continues.
Speaking exclusively to Tottenham News, Dr. Rajpal Brar—a doctor in physical therapy and sports scientist—offered his expert assessment on Romero’s current situation.
“The challenge with this injury lies in its location—the quadriceps,” Dr. Brar explained.
“There’s a high demand on these muscles, and depending on the specifics of the injury, they may also play a role in hip flexion,” he noted.
“That can make rehabilitation more challenging, potentially slowing down the recovery process.
“The club’s medical team will be guiding him through a structured strength and conditioning program while closely monitoring his progress.”
“I still expect him to be sidelined for a few more weeks.”

Kevin Danso Must Rise to the Challenge in Romero’s Absence
Spurs brought in Kevin Danso on loan from Lens in January to help navigate their ongoing injury crisis.
With Dr. Rajpal Brar’s latest update confirming Romero’s extended absence, Danso will need to maintain his fitness and consistency for a few more weeks to help Tottenham finish the season strongly.
The defender has already made a positive impression in his short time at the club, particularly shining in the recent 1-0 victory over Manchester United at home.
