NAME: Pedro Porro
AGE: 22
HEIGHT: 5'9
POSITION: RB/RWB
NATIONALITY: Spain
TEAM: Sporting Clube De Portugal
Description : It is no surprise that Sporting has hosted a hot bed of talents in the last 3 years and Pedro Porro is no exception to the rule. Pedro Porro is your typical Spanish player combining flair with a hard nose tenacity and mentality. Porro is a player with a lot of emotion who celebrates a block, save, or interception like it was a goal. Never scared to get in someones face Porro has the typical pit bull South American personality despite being Spanish. Pedro Porro became a regular starter for Girona in La Liga before being purchased by Manchester City for 11M and loaned back to La Liga side Valladolid. For the 2020/21 season Manchester City loaned Porro to Sporting CP for 2 years with an option to buy for 8.5M which Sporting subsequently exercised in January of 2022. Porro quickly became a important member of the squad and along with Nuno Mended at left back formed the best right and left back partnership in the league as Sporting won the league title and Porro was voted the best right back in the league. In 2021/22 Porro showed an increased maturity in his game and has become one of the key members of the squad winning for the second year in a row the delegation of being considered the best right back in the country. Now in his 3rd year in the league Porro will be looking to continue his successful tenure with the club before making a move to one of Europes big clubs. While at Sporting Porro has become a Spanish international, earning his first caps for his country. Pedro Porro is also rumored to be sleeping with Joao Felix girlfriend (sorry I had too ).
PLAYSTYLE: Pedro Porro is a technically gifted attacking fullback who plays in the RWB position for Sporting in Amorim's 5-2-3 set up. The wing back position in this set up is very demanding and Porro fills the role seamlessly which makes me believe he would not have any problems adjusting to the demanding play of the EPL. Pedro Porro's crossing, passing, shooting and dribbling ability makes him a big threat going forward and is always a threat on the offensive end. In the 2020/2021 season Porro scored 4 goals and 4 assists and he improved that mark in 2021/2022 scoring 5 goals and dishing out 6 assists. Porro has also proven to a viable option at set pieces and regularly takes corners, as well as penalties. Porro has also shown to be a capable free kick taker if need be. Defensively Porro does not shy away from his duties and celebrates a tough challenge as much as he does a goal. His ability to commit to both ends of the pitch along with his passion has made him a fan favorite among the Sporting faithful. At 22 years old he still has a lot to grow and learn but he is undoubtedly one of the most talented players in the world at his position/age group.
Strengths: Shooting. Crossing, Dribbling, Set Pieces, Penalties, Defending, Concentration.
Weaknesses: Discipline (talks himself into cards at times and is very aggressive, arguing and mouthing off two the opposition), Injuries (Porro in 2 seasons at Sporting has managed to pick up some nagging injuries causing him to miss some key moments, although he has never suffered any major injuries to date * knock on wood)
TRANSFER SPECULATION/MARKET VALUATION: Porro has been heavily linked with the liked of Real Madrid, Barcelona Atletico Madrid, and as of recently Sevilla. Sporting would demand somewhere in the region of 40-45M for Pedro Porro. I can see England heavy hitters being interested in his signing if he performs up to standard yet again for Sporting both domestically and in the CL as well as for Spain at the World Cup. With reports coming out that United are interested in a RB I wonder if they have shortlisted Pedro Porro as a potential signing. Pedro Porro would slot in seamlessly with ETH style of play and would be an immediate upgrade for United in an important position for the squad. With the transfer window closing in s couple of weeks and the new season kicking off this weekend I don't see Sporting selling Porro this transfer window however next summer their is a goof chance they lose many key assets including Porro.
VIDEOS/SCOUTING:
** If you skip to 2:21 you can see his passing ability with the fantastic assist to Sarabia for the game winner*
