Tottenham have confirmed that Cristian Romero has been appointed club captain by Thomas Frank following Son Heung-min’s move to LAFC. “I think he has all the right qualities,” Frank said of the 27-year-old. “He leads from his behaviour on the pitch, driving the team forward in every way, and outside the pitch he’s always pushing the team.”
