When asked where he would like to play next, he told : "I would love to play in La Liga, it's the one I'm missing."

On the most annoying striker he has faced, Romero replied: "Jackson, annoying in his way of speaking. We played away last year, we talked about everything over each other the whole game. Richarlison is another annoying one. I know him now, he's a character. But if I face him with the national team, he's annoying."

THE BIGGER PICTURE

It seems as if a Tottenham exit has been on the cards for some time for Romero. The 27-year-old wants to head to Spain one day but perhaps the promise of Champions League football after their Europa League trophy win will convince him to stay for a while yet.
