Tottenham Hotspur star Pedro Porro’s future is up in the air.
Spurs have a very good team when everybody’s fit. Yes, they’re not ready to challenge for the big trophies yet, but if they can keep everyone together and add a few more quality players, they could get there.
However, when massive clubs that always win trophies are interested in one of your players, things get complicated. That’s exactly what’s happening at Tottenham.
Real Madrid are interested in signing Porro in 2025. Spurs are concerned and are even looking at potential replacements if he decides to go.
Tottenham eye move for Lutsharel Geertruida as Pedro Porro’s replacement
Porro has become one of Tottenham’s most important players under Ange Postecoglou.
The Spaniard had a difficult start to his career at Spurs. He came under a ton of criticism in his first few months at the club.
However, his performances have gone up a level since the start of the 2023/24 season, and that’s probably why Real Madrid want to sign Porro in one of the next two windows.
TBR Football’s Graeme Bailey has revealed that Porro is really keen on a move to Real Madrid in 2025. Now, there’s an update on who could potentially replace him.
CaughtOffside claim that Tottenham have a ‘concrete interest’ in RB Leipzig defender Lutsharel Geertruida and view him as an option to replace Porro.
The player only joined Leipzig in the summer of 2024, but it has been claimed that he has expressed an interest in moving to the Premier League.
That, according to the outlet, could bring his price down and make him available for a fee between £33 million and £37 million (€40-45m).

How much Daniel Levy would demand from Real Madrid for Porro
Tottenham initially signed Porro on loan for £5 million before making that move permanent for another £39 million, taking the total expenditure to £44 million.
That is a lot of money for a full-back, but Porro’s performances over the last year have, to a certain extent, justified that fee.
Real Madrid are the biggest club in the world, and Daniel Levy knows how to make them pay big money when they come calling – look at what he did with Gareth Bale.
Now, reports have revealed that Levy and Tottenham will demand around £70 million for Porro if Real Madrid make their move for him in 2025.
It remains to be seen whether the Galacticos will agree to pay such a high fee for the Spaniard.
