Tottenham right-back Pedro Porro could be one to watch in the transfer market in the near future, according to former Spurs player and manager Tim Sherwood.
Porro has come into his own in a Tottenham shirt after a slow start in north London and now there is growing speculation on Real Madrid’s interest in the Spaniard.
It is well documented that Los Blancos are scouring the market for players in this position, with Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold perhaps the most prominent target at the moment, with these rumors not dying down because the England international s is nearing the end of his career. contract at Anfield.
Still, Liverpool will surely try to tie down Alexander-Arnold to a new deal, which could mean Real have to look for alternatives, and Leek could be a good choice.
As well as wondering how to buy Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur tickets by the weekend, there are sure to be plenty of Spurs fans starting to worry about this situation.
We’ve seen Spurs sell star names in the past, with the likes of Gareth Bale and Luka Modric moving from White Hart Lane to the Bernabeu in living memory.
Meanwhile, Harry Kane left for Bayern Munich just over a year ago, so could Porro be another star to worry about for THFC supporters?
Tim Sherwood expressed concern about Pedro Porro
Sherwood is a huge admirer of Porro but has admitted he could see Madrid being in the market for the 25-year-old.
Sherwood, speaking at Ladbrokes’ Gaffer of all Accas launch, said: “Although there’s always a concern, when you’re doing a job like Ange (Postecoglou) and you’re signing the right players and playing them the right way, these players will automatically attract the interest of the big clubs.
“Pedro Porro is someone I criticized when I first saw him play, under Antonio Conte, but he was asked to play as a conventional right-back, and that’s not where his assets lie. His assets are going forward, taking the ball in midfield with a lot of energy, power and good deliveries, and there are many teams at the moment looking for this type of player… Real Madrid is one of them. “
He added: “Whether it’s Trent Alexander-Arnold or Pedro Porro… maybe the fact that he’s Spanish could come into things, so that’s something I would worry about in the next few windows.”
