It is time for Tottenham Hotspur supporters to accept something which they have known deep down for a long time.Cristian Romero is often presented as a great footballer who has the occasional moment of madness. In reality, it is the other way around. The constant drama Romero causes outweighs his quality and Spurs should sell him this summer.Romero was appointed as captain at the beginning of the season by then head coach Thomas Frank and signed a new long-term contract, which made him one of the club’s highest-paid players. Leaders need to push their egos to one side. They need to take accountability when things go wrong and are required to be selfless. Romero is the complete opposite.The Argentina international’s decision to miss Spurs’ final game of the season against Everton is an insult to his team-mates and the supporters. Spurs need to beat Everton on Sunday to guarantee their top-flight status for next season, although a draw will likely be enough even if West Ham United, who are two points below them and occupy the final relegation spot, beat Leeds United, due to Tottenham’s superior goal difference (-10 vs -22).Instead of supporting the club that pays his salary and the squad he spends every day with, the 28-year-old will be in Argentina watching his boyhood club Belgrano take on River Plate in a championship decider.
