Pedro Porro #12

Profile

Aggressive in the transition, alert to his defensive responsibilities and ambitious going forward, Porro has developed all the attributes of the modern full-back. He’s also known as a ‘jugador de calle’ (a street player) because of his competitive spirit and willingness to do anything for his team. These are often traits of people who come from Don Benito, a rural part of Extremadura in western Spain. Being mired in a relegation battle with Tottenham has only added to his education as an athlete, both on and off the pitch. In high-pressure situations, he always responds. With the duopoly of Dani Carvajal and Jesús Navas over, he has the opportunity to shine for the national team.
