Tottenham defender Cristian Romero's father Victor has claimed that his son has to head back to England very soon.

Spurs want Romero back so that he can be a part of manager Antonio Conte's squad for the busy Christmas period.

Romero won the World Cup with Argentina on Sunday, playing all seven of their games and managing 120 minutes in the final against France.

“He won't have much time to enjoy himself. We'll see how it goes. But they already want him back in England," Victor told Argentinian outlet La Voz.

While some players are getting an extended break from their clubs after their World Cup exploits, Romero may not get such treatment.

He is presently in Argentina with his teammates, as they celebrate their success with the natives in Buenos Aires and other cities.
