Tottenham suffer ANOTHER huge injury blow as star ruled out for remainder of seasonTottenham ended the weekend in the Premier League relegation zone after defeat by Sunderland and their plight has got even worse with the news Cristian Romero won't play again this seasonCommentsSportFelix Keith Senior Sports Reporter17:27, 13 Apr 2026View 2 ImagesCristian Romero will miss the rest of the season(Image: George Wood/Getty Images)Tottenham have suffered a huge blow to their campaign against relegation from the Premier League after Cristian Romero was ruled out for the rest of the season. Romero left the pitch in tears during Sunday's 1-0 defeat by Sunderland and the extent of his injury has now been revealed.‌The Spurs captain was injured after colliding with goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in the second half at the Stadium of Light. He was chasing the ball back towards his goal while under pressure from Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey and saw his knee smash into the head of Kinsky.‌While Kinsky suffered a gash to his forehead, Romero had to be replaced by Kevin Danso. And an MRI scan on Monday has now confirmed that he has suffered a high-grade partial tear of the medial collateral ligament in his right knee.‌It means the centre-back will be unavailable for the final six Premier League matches of the season. Spurs' defeat and West Ham's 4-0 win over Wolves on the weekend has left Roberto De Zerbi's side in 18th place, two points adrift of the Hammers and three behind Nottingham Forest and Leeds, who play Manchester United on Monday night.JOIN US ON FACEBOOK!
