Cristian Romero called out Tottenham hierarchy for a reason – Giovani Lo Celso

Giovani Lo Celso has defended Cristian Romero’s complaint about Tottenham’s lack of investment and has reflected on his frustrating spell at Tottenham.

Cristian Romero has a go at the Spurs hierarchy

Following Tottenham’s defeat to Chelsea last week, Romero publicly defended Ange Postecoglou and suggested that the main issue at the North London side was the fact that the club are not investing as much into the squad as the best sides in the Premier League.

The centre-back added about Spurs‘ struggles: “Hopefully they realise who the real responsible ones are.”

While Romero‘s words have gone down well with the supporters, Postecoglou insisted that the Argentine did not “go about it in the right way” and revealed that the Spurs vice-captain had apologised for what he said.

Romero’s former Spurs teammate and close friend, Lo Celso, has now been asked about his compatriot’s statement, and the midfielder admitted that some ‘strange things’ went on at the club last season.

The 28-year-old, who completed a return to Real Betis in the summer, told The Times: “Obviously, Cuti said that for a reason and for me as well to be honest there are many strange things. I prefer not to spread open a fan I cannot close but it was very weird, very strange last season.

“If there was something that kept me afloat it was the fans. The club is now in transition and I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I think all of us have to take responsibility.”

Lo Celso has positive memories of Spurs

Lo Celso never managed to fulfil his potential at Tottenham, with Spurs fans only getting to see his quality in fits and starts.

However, the midfielder insists that despite his frustrations, he has positive memories of his five-year spell with the Premier League side.

When asked if he was relieved to finally call time on his time at Tottenham last season, Lo Celso responded: “I don’t know if relief is the word but I do know that last season they gave me a hard time. In the end, it’s over, it’s a cycle that’s finished and the truth is I have some great memories of the people at Tottenham.

“The stadium is unique, every game we played, any day of the week, it was full, which is incredible for a player. I was in England a long time, a new experience, a new language, so in football and in life, it was an unforgettable experience.”
