Tottenham Deem Pedro Porro “Untouchable” Amid Real Madrid Interest
Tottenham Hotspur have firmly shut the door on a summer exit for Pedro Porro, despite the right-back attracting serious interest from Real Madrid. According to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, the North London club has zero intention of entering negotiations for the Spanish international.
Real Madrid’s Right-Back Search
Real Madrid are actively scouting the market to reinforce their defensive flanks ahead of the upcoming season. Following the departure of Dani Carvajal, new manager José Mourinho is keen to secure high-level competition for Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Romano confirmed on X (formerly Twitter) that Los Blancos have shortlisted three primary options:
Pedro Porro (Tottenham)
Denzel Dumfries (Inter Milan)
Ivan Fresneda (Sporting CP)
De Zerbi Views Porro as “Cornerstone”
While Real Madrid hold a strong admiration for Porro, Tottenham’s stance is unyielding. Speaking on his YouTube channel, Romano clarified that Spurs are planning for the future with the 26-year-old firmly in their ranks.
”Pedro Porro is one of the players appreciated by Real Madrid,” Romano reported. “But my understanding is that Tottenham don’t want to sell the player. Tottenham want Pedro Porro to stay.”
The defender is considered an indispensable asset for manager Roberto De Zerbi, who views the Spaniard as a vital cornerstone of his rebuilding project.
Porro’s Key Stats & Contract Status
Since making the switch to Tottenham in 2023, Porro has evolved into one of the team’s most consistent and impactful performers.
Total Impact: 13 goals and 26 assists across 152 total appearances.
Recent Form: Played 47 matches during the 2025/26 campaign, chipping in with 2 goals and 6 assists.
Contract Security: Under contract in North London until 2028.
Despite the heavy interest originating from the Spanish capital, Tottenham’s long-term commitment to De Zerbi’s project means Porro will be staying put.
