In August, he was transferred from Atalanta to Tottenham for €50 million, while in December he took the top of the world with his Argentina, winning the World Cup in Qatar.

Cristian Romero is experiencing the most beautiful moment in his career and life, but everything would be different if the idea of ??retiring from football at the age of 19 became a reality.

The Argentinian central defender has told a behind-the-scenes story about the past. For a moment he seriously thought about withdrawing from active football, but fortunately the doubts did not defeat him and he found the strength to continue winning.

" Now I'm happy, but five years ago I was seriously thinking about leaving football... Playing in the best championship and being a world champion is the best for me, it's even a source of pride.

We deserved to win the World Cup because we had an incredible group and because we always pushed hard going beyond our limits.

Losing to Saudi Arabia made us mentally stronger, a strength we showed throughout the World Cup. It was only fair to end it as a winner ," Romero recalled.
