Real Madrid is closely following Pedro Porro as one of the options to strengthen their right-back position, especially after Dani Carvajal's injury, which has left the team with urgent needs in that position, as reported by AS. Although Trent Alexander-Arnold is the favorite for this role, Tottenham's player appears as a solid alternative.
At 25 years old, Porro has shown significant growth in the Premier League, regularly facing some of the most challenging attackers in world football. His adaptation under Ange Postecoglou's direction, with a shift to a more defensive 4-4-2 formation, has allowed him to improve his defensive duties without sacrificing his offensive projection, a characteristic highly valued at the Santiago Bernabéu. This progress has earned him a call back to the Spanish National Team, where he recently played the full 180 minutes in the matches against Denmark and Serbia.
Tottenham Won't Let Pedro Porro Go Easily
However, executing the operation will not be easy. Tottenham acquired Porro in January 2023 for 45 million euros, a significant investment that has paid off by making him an undisputed starter. Since his arrival, Porro's market value has increased, currently placing him in the same range as his original signing, a figure that reflects his importance at the London team and the difficulty of a potential negotiation. Manchester City is also interested in signing the full-back.
For Real Madrid, signing Pedro Porro would involve a considerable investment and a complex negotiation, as his contract with Tottenham runs until 2028. Nevertheless, the interest persists, and his profile would fit in the white team's project, which seeks solidity and consistency at the right-back position.
