Tottenham Hotspur defender Pedro Porro has signed a new five-year contract to remain in north London until at least 2031.

The highly sought-after right-back has committed his long-term future to the club, with the fresh agreement also including an option to extend for a further 12 months.

Retaining the Spaniard’s services had been deemed a major priority for the Spurs hierarchy following his impressive domestic form.

The international star featured 47 times across all competitions during the previous campaign as his side narrowly secured their Premier League survival.

Since initially arriving on loan from Sporting Lisbon in 2023, the dynamic full-back has accumulated 152 appearances and cemented a permanent spot in Roberto De Zerbi’s tactical setup.

Sporting director Johan Lange highlighted the player’s rapid development over the past three-and-a-half years as a driving factor behind the lucrative new deal.

Securing Pedro’s future was an important priority for us this summer.

World Cup ambitions and managerial praise

Lange added that the defender’s upcoming participation in the World Cup for Spain serves as a clear testament to his status as one of the best full-backs in the modern game.

De Zerbi, who has relied heavily on the former Sporting man’s versatility, praised both his technical quality and exceptional daily work ethic.

Pedro is a very important player for us, who has consistently shown his ability to influence matches in both defensive and attacking situations.

The former Brighton manager noted that the squad relies on the energy, intensity, and intelligent personality that the full-back brings to the pitch.

This new contract is good news for everyone at the Club. We believe in Pedro, and I am excited to continue working with him and helping him achieve even more in the coming years.
