Romero posted on Instagram with photos from Tottenham’s most recent training session, with himself included, after the international break.
He captioned his latest post with “We’re back” with a heart emoji. His teammates shared a reaction to the message with Dominic Solanke, Pedro Porro and Xavi Simons, who has impressed Tottenham fans with his training ground displays since his arrival, all liking the message.
It has already been a significant campaign for the Argentine, as Romero was named Tottenham captain after Heung-Min Son had left.
The defender’s future had come under question for the majority of the summer, with Football Insider revealing Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid had interest in Romero.
However, with no bids lodged, and Spurs staying determined over their asking price, he ended up staying at the club.
Any lingering doubts were ended after Romero signed a new deal with Tottenham, committing his future and cementing his place in Thomas Frank’s long-term plans.

Tottenham push for Yves Bissouma exit
While Romero has returned to Tottenham, one player the club remain eager to move on is Yves Bissouma.
Football Insider revealed that Tottenham are willing to let Bissouma go on loan to get the midfielder off their books for the season.
The deadline in Turkey is 12 September, while Saudi Pro League clubs have until 23 September and the Mali international has been linked with a potential move.
Frank is reportedly unhappy with Bissouma’s attitude and he has not featured for Tottenham so far this season. His time in North London looks to be coming to an end as Spurs explore options to sell or loan him out.
