Suffers possible muscle injury Tuesday Romero was forced off early in the second half of Tuesday's match with Argentina with a possible hamstring injury.

Impact Romero only has a few days to recover, so there's a chance he won't be available to Antonio Conte on Sunday. He'll get back to the team late Wednesday and then likely take some tests before possibly taking part in training. For now, there's a decent chance he misses Sunday's match against Leeds, giving way to someone like Japhet Tanganga, Davinson Sanchez or Joe Rodon at center-back.

Busy defensively for draw Romero made three tackles and four blocks during Sunday's 0-0 draw with Everton.

Impact Romero had plenty to do behind the ball and put together some nice defensive volume in the draw. The central defender offers next to no fantasy value in most situations, and isn't one to be relied upon. He remains a fringe option in any match after the international break.

Impact Romero started in all three matches for Argentina over the break, so there's a chance he isn't asked to start Sunday. He's started two of the last three league matches and seems likely to be replaced by Davinson Sanchez, who stayed on the bench for Colombia in their most recent match.

Out after international duty Romero is training in Croatia to avoid a 10-day quarantine and will miss Tottenham's next two matches, reports Evening Standard.

Impact Romero knew this was coming after joining Argentina over the break, so it's not a surprise. He's slowly worked his way into the squad and another absence will likely mean more time out of the starting XI. Sooner or later, he'll get his first Premier League start.
