Pedro Porro has addressed growing speculation surrounding his future at Tottenham Hotspur amid reported interest from both La Liga and Serie A giants Atletico de Madrid and Inter Milan.
The Spanish full-back has emerged as a potential target for the two European sides ahead of the summer transfer window, with his profile and experience making him an attractive option in the market.
Inter are believed to be assessing right-back options as they plan for the future, while Atletico’s long-standing admiration for the player has also resurfaced in recent weeks.
Despite the mounting interest, Porro is not understood to be actively pushing for a move away at this stage.
The 26-year-old remains focused on his current responsibilities at Tottenham, even as the club continue to endure a challenging campaign.
“Right now, I’m not thinking about returning. I’m focused on getting through this, on getting out of it somehow,” Porro told AS, per quotes revealed by Sports Witness.
“When you’re young, you dream about the biggest clubs. I’m at one, even though things aren’t going well for us. I’d like to return to Spain someday, also for my family. I hope the door is always open.”
Spurs’ situation could, however, play a key role in influencing decisions later in the year. Uncertainty surrounding their league position and overall direction means several players are expected to reassess their futures once the season comes to an end.
Porro’s importance to the Lillywhites is not in any doubt as the right-back has continued to feature prominently and is increasingly seen as one of the more influential figures within the squad, with his leadership role growing in recent months.
Amid the external interest, Tottenham are reportedly keen to secure his long-term future. The club are considering offering the defender a new contract as part of plans to retain key players and maintain stability within the squad.
For now, the situation remains open. With interest from top European clubs and Tottenham’s own circumstances still shrouded in uncertainty, Porro’s future in North London is likely to become clearer as the summer window draws nearer.
