Giovani Lo Celso has revealed that Cristian Romero is someone the Tottenham players look up to, stating that the Argentine defender is showcasing his full repertoire, now that he has completely adapted to his new surroundings.
It is fair to say that some Spurs fans had misgivings about Romero last season as he was struggling to replicate his international performances in a white shirt, with a few even questioning if he is as committed to the club as he is to his national side.
However, the 25-year-old has answered those questions quite emphatically this season, stepping up and becoming one of the leaders of this new-look Tottenham side after being made vice captain by Ange Postecoglou.
While there are still some question marks over Romero’s temperament, he is now starting to be more widely recognised as one of the most talented centre-backs in the Premier League.

Lo Celso is impressed by Cristian Romero at Spurs
Lo Celso has now spoken about his compatriot’s evolution at Spurs, revealing that he leads from the front in training as well as in matches.
The midfielder told Infobae: “They already love him a lot here, he is a reference point within the club, in the dressing room. He is the second captain behind Son, who has been here for many years.
“I see him doing very well, he’s becoming more and more adapted and a point of reference, transmitting a lot. He transmits a lot in training and in matches. Having him in the team gives us a plus.”

It is quite evident that Romero has the respect of the Tottenham dressing room, not only because of the quality he possesses but also because of what he has achieved recently, with the centre-back now being a world champion.
It also appears like the 25-year-old feels a lot more ownership of this current Spurs side than he did at times last season, having now been handed leadership responsibility by Postecoglou.
