Report: Real Madrid eye another Tottenham star amid interest in Romero, Van de Ven

Real Madrid, having shown interest in Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, is now looking at another Tottenham defender, according to reports.

In addition to the highly sought-after Trent Alexander-Arnold, Real Madrid has set its sights on another right-back in the Premier League. This player, who was on their radar over a year ago, is regaining prominence on the club's agenda.

Real Madrid is known for its forward-thinking approach, continuously monitoring potential future signings. With several key players ageing, it's clear that the club must begin planning for necessary replacements in specific positions.

Currently, it proves challenging to find top-quality full-backs, especially with Dani Carvajal, a cornerstone of the defence, still performing at a high level. While the emergence of Trent Alexander-Arnold as a potential target has generated excitement, it’s evident that he will have numerous admirers, complicating any pursuit.

Reports indicate that Real Madrid are now considering Pedro Porro, the Tottenham Hotspur right-back, as another option. According to CaughtOffside (h/t Fichajes), Porro has once again captured the attention of the club, signalling that the Merengues are serious about strengthening their defensive options.

The Spanish international has made a notable impact this season, scoring one goal in seven appearances, and remains a crucial player for Spurs.

Porro's consistent performances have caught the eye of various top clubs, including the reigning European champions. His versatility and attacking prowess make him an attractive candidate for a team looking to bolster its backline.

As previously mentioned, it’s entirely expected for these sorts of reports to surface, particularly considering that Tottenham currently possess one of the finest defensive partnerships in the world.

However, with the players tied down to contracts, it seems both difficult and unwarranted to speculate on their possible departures at this juncture.
