Antonio Conte already considers Cristian Romero a permanent member of Tottenham's squad, and many fans no doubt will too.
The 23-year-old joined Spurs on a season-long loan spell from Atalanta with a £42.5million obligation to buy in the summer.
A 'very serious' hamstring injury suffered on international duty with Argentina in November interrupted what had been a promising start to his loan spell, and Spurs consequently struggled without him, conceding 13 goals across all competitions.


But Italian boss Conte was gushing in his praise of the Argentine following his return to the first-team fold in the FA Cup fourth-round win against Brighton.
