Porro, who was ranked at no.5 in FourFourTwo's list of the best right-backs in the world right now, has continued to impress since his transfer from Sporting last year. His performances have only improved, making him one of the most skilled full-backs in the Premier League.
It is his form for Spurs that has prompted clubs including Real Madrid to make their interest known in the last few months, with an injury to Dani Carvajal hinting that perhaps they are in the market for a replacement.
Pedro Porro plays down reports he is attracting interest from Real Madrid“I am focused on my job," said the 25-year-old as quoted by El Desmarque this week. I am 25 years old, and at 26 I don’t know where I can be, football is like that. I am settled in English football, I have a contract until 2028,” he said.
“My name and others are mentioned, but I am focused on my club and now with the national team. My friends send me the rumours, it is a compliment, but I am focused. It is the result of a job well done that one of the best clubs in the world is taking notice of me.”
It is widely known across Europe that Real Madrid want to bring in a fresh face at right-back in the summer, with The Athletic previously reporting that Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jeremie Frimpong and Porro are all names being considered.
Alexander-Arnold does look like the most likely option given he is out of contract in June 2025 and has expressed his desire to go and be remembered as one of the best players of all-time.

That link may save Spurs fans from worrying too much, with Porro still under contract in North London until at least 2028.
Tottenham have a plethora of young talent coming through their ranks with Archie Gray, Mikey Moore and Lucas Bergvall all impressing under Ange Postecoglou so far this season. FourFourTwo does believe that for now, Porro will remain a Tottenham player.
