Cristian Romero fitness update ahead of Switzerland clash <\/h2>\n

The World Cup has not been short of drama so far. The last round produced one of the tournament\u2019s biggest comebacks, with Argentina clawing their way back from two goals down against Egypt with a little over ten minutes to play.<\/p>\n

A spirited fightback followed, led by Tottenham centre-back Romero, who scored the first of three goals in the 79th minute. <\/p>\n

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez completed the turnaround before Romero was substituted in additional time for Nicolas Otamendi.<\/p>\n

His late withdrawal raised concerns about his fitness ahead of Argentina\u2019s upcoming match against Switzerland.<\/p>\n

However, according to Argentine outlet El Dia, as reported by Sport Witness, tests have shown that Romero did not suffer a fresh injury. <\/p>\n

Instead, the scan revealed only cramp in his left calf, easing fears of a more serious issue.<\/p>\n

Romero\u2019s World Cup form attracting interest amid uncertain Spurs future<\/h2>\n

Of course, Romero has been key for Argentina throughout the competition, and his display against Egypt will have caught the attention of many admirers. <\/p>\n

The Spurs captain faces an uncertain future and is among several players the Lilywhites could consider moving on this summer.<\/p>\n

Following his strong performances at the World Cup, respected journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Romero\u2019s impressive form in North America has attracted interest from several major clubs, with sides in La Liga and Serie A monitoring the centre-back closely.<\/p>\n

Romano even suggested that the race for the Tottenham man could intensify over the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
