Tottenham right-back Pedro Porro is wanted by Real Madrid and Barcelona, with both clubs eyeing a £75m move, according to Spurs Web. Porro played a crucial role in Spain's World Cup win and rumours have intensified about a potential return to Spain. A Spanish outlet claimed Porro is increasingly convinced a move to Madrid or Barcelona would secure a Spain starting berth.

However, a new report in Sport suggests getting Porro out of Tottenham would be 'almost impossible' due to his recent five-year contract extension with an option for a one-year extension. Porro is reportedly happy in London and not expected to push for a move, having an excellent relationship with Roberto De Zerbi and being a 'key figure' in the Spurs dressing room.

The publication asserts it is 'highly unlikely' Tottenham would negotiate over Porro in the January window. Porro previously stated he felt supported by Tottenham during his contract renewal and is happy at the club. A recent incident showed Porro's closeness to De Zerbi, kissing him on the neck during an interview.

How we label and update stories

Source context

Tottenham Hotspur fans have received some good news about the future of Pedro Porro, who is wanted by Spain’s two biggest clubs. Porro played a crucial role in helping Spain become World champions for the second time in the summer, and since then, rumours have been intensifying about the right-back potentially returning to his home country. Real Madrid and Barcelona have both been credited with an interest in the Tottenham defender, who only extended his deal in North London during the summer, just ahead of the World Cup. However, it would take a world-record bid of £75m to bring Tottenham to the table. A new report in Sport has now confirmed that both Los Blancos and the Blaugrana are eyeing a move for Porro, with both clubs wanting to make upgrades at right-back.
