Tottenham Captain Cristian Romero Signs New Contract Until 2029

On August 18, 2025, Tottenham Hotspur confirmed that Cristian Romero had committed to a new long-term contract through 2029 and was appointed club captain after Son Heung-min completed his move to LAFC.
Romero's future had been uncertain during the summer as Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid showed interest, but both clubs failed to meet Tottenham's demands and withdrew from negotiations.
Since joining Tottenham in 2021 from Juventus, Romero played a key role in the club’s 2024 UEFA Europa League victory, captaining Spurs in the 1-0 final win over Manchester United.
Manager Thomas Frank praised Romero’s leadership, commitment, and training standards, emphasizing the respect he commands on and off the pitch and calling him a very committed player.
Romero’s new deal likely makes him Tottenham’s highest-paid player and provides stability as the club aims for further success under Frank's management with Romero as captain.
