First of all, now the focus is on Chelsea.<\/p>\n \u201cSecond point, Romero is a great player, and the most important is the behaviour and how much the player wants to stay in this club. We are going to take all the decisions after this season and after the Everton game.\u201d<\/p>\n Romero has started training outdoors, which potentially raises the possibility that he could feature for in Tottenham\u2019s final game of the season against Everton.<\/p>\n However, De Zerbi is not concerned about whether his injured players will return in time, insisting that the only thing he is focused on is securing the club\u2019s survival.<\/p>\n When asked if we could see Romero feature against Everton, the Tottenham boss said: \u201cI don\u2019t know, but listen, we have to play another two games. Now, for our injured players, when are they available after a long time with injury? It is a big problem because the season is tough and only one target we have now.<\/p>\n \u201cPlay with Romero? Play with Vicario? Play with Kinsky? The target is just one and to stay up and make a point tomorrow, because this is the target for everyone. Individual targets now are not important.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Cristian](\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/static\/uploads\/1\/2026\/01\/cristian-romero-34422-1024x636.jpg\")
