Argentina defender Cristian Romero has signed a permanent contract to remain with Tottenham until 2027, the English Premier League club said on Tuesday.

Romero joined on a season-long loan from Italian team Atalanta in August last year and has established himself as a key member of Tottenham's defense as well as a popular player among the London club's fan base.

The 24-year-old Romero, who began his career with Argentine side Atletico Belgrano and has played 11 times for his country, joined Atalanta from Juventus in 2021.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is recovering in the hospital after being diagnosed with pneumonia and will miss at least the team’s next two games, the club has said.

In a statement released by Newcastle late Monday, the 47-year-old Howe thanked everyone at the club and “the wider football community for your messages and warm wishes.”

Pneumonia is inflammation of the lungs typically caused by an infection. According to Britain’s National Health Service, most people get better in 2-4 weeks but people at most risk of getting seriously ill and needing hospital treatment are babies, older people and those with heart or lung conditions.

Howe will miss Premier League games against Crystal Palace at home on Wednesday and Aston Villa away on Saturday. He already missed the 4-1 win over Manchester United on Sunday, having been admitted to the hospital on Friday after feeling unwell for several days.

Assistants Jason Tindall and Graeme Jones will continue to lead the team in Howe’s absence, Newcastle said.

Newcastle is in fourth place in the Premier League and attempting to qualify for next season’s Champions League by finishing in the top five. By beating Palace, Newcastle would jump above Nottingham Forest into third.
