Cristian Romero will have delighted Spurs fans with his comments before the club’s Champions League opener against Villarreal.
Spurs have won three of their opening four Premier League fixtures, with Romero starting every match under boss Thomas Frank.
I never said I wanted to leave the Club, Romero commented.
I am very happy here.”
Romero has been at Spurs for four seasons since joining, initially on loan, from Serie A side Atalanta.
Spurs have only conceded one Premier League goal this season, and Frank persuading Romero to sign a new contract was a boost to the manager.
Even under Ange Postecoglou, Romero and van de Ven’s presence in the back four massively boosted their chances of success.
