Manchester City Monitors Tottenham Defender for Signing
The website "CaughtOffside" revealed that Manchester City is monitoring the contract situation of Spanish player Pedro Porro with Tottenham Hotspur, as the English club is looking for a new right-back. Porro's name has resurfaced as a serious option to strengthen the defense.
The website pointed out that Tottenham is keen to keep the 26-year-old player and is currently working on a long-term contract to extend his stay beyond 2028, considering him a key player in the club's long-term project.
Boro has been associated with Manchester City since 2019, when the club signed him from Girona for £11 million. However, he never appeared for the first team and spent loan spells at Valladolid and Sporting Lisbon before making a permanent move to the latter. During his time in Lisbon, Boro developed into one of the most active attacking full-backs in Europe, which earned him a transfer to Tottenham for £39 million in 2023.
City has been monitoring the player's development since he left the Etihad Stadium, with coach Pep Guardiola impressed by his technical skills and attacking mindset. He represents a suitable option for the club's inverted defensive system, similar to Cancelo's performance at his peak.
The same source confirmed that Boro has become a key player under coach Thomas Frank, thanks to his ability to combine defensive solidity with offensive contribution, which has attracted the attention of City, while Tottenham remains keen on the player and is working to improve his contract to make him one of the highest-paid in the team.
The report also indicated that Manchester City is monitoring Tino Livramento from Newcastle United as an alternative option, while Guardiola is considering both players as part of a broader plan to rebuild the defense and revitalize key areas of the team for the upcoming season.
