In further good Romero news for Spurs, the 24-year-old might return from injury against West Ham United.

Sky Sports News claim that the defender could be named in Antonio Conte’s squad to face the Hammers.

Romero suffered a knock against Chelsea and has missed Spurs’ last two matches.

But given the team have kept clean sheets in both games and with the east Londoners struggling to score, it would seem foolish to risk him.
