Tottenham Hotspur: Pedro Porro’s contract examined as relegation looms
Tottenham Hotspur could lose several first-team stars in the summer, and Pedro Porro is one of them.
The Lilywhites are in a desperate situation right now, with little time remaining to drag themselves away from the Premier League bottom three.
A drop into the Championship is a realistic possibility at this stage, with little positivity to take from Igor Tudor’s tenure in charge.
The Spain international has hardly provided any moments for fans to hang on to, with his performances coming under scrutiny regularly this season.
Porro faces an uncertain future at Tottenham alongside a host of his teammates, and we have now assessed his contract situation in N17.

What is Pedro Porro’s contract situation at Tottenham?
The 26-year-old has been a useful asset for the Lilywhites over the years, but this season has been far from his best.
He isn’t alone in that, but his failure to pick up many goal involvements has become a point of frustration despite being known for getting forward.
| Stat (Premier League 25-26) | Pedro Porro |
| Appearances | 27 |
| Minutes played | 2168 |
| Goal involvements | 2 |
| Defensive actions | 157 |
| Duels won | 104 |
That hasn’t helped the steady stream of negative reviews of his performances this season, especially given his drop-off from his earlier Spurs performances.
His contract, which followed his permanent move from Sporting Lisbon, is set to run until the summer of 2028.
Porro reportedly earns a figure in the region of £85,000 per week, equating to a yearly salary of around £4.4million.
That sort of fee is unlikely to be feasible if Tottenham are relegated to the Championship by the end of the season.
When could Pedro Porro leave Tottenham?
The Spaniard’s future at N17 almost entirely depends on which division the Lilywhites are playing in when next season begins.
If Tudor somehow avoids relegation, Porro is likely to stay until his contract comes to an end at least, so potentially another season or two.
On the flip side, a drop into the second tier would likely spell the end of the road for the defender in North London after four years.
He is likely to want top division football, and with weekly wages of £85,000, that is unlikely to be possible in the Championship.
It is an uncertain time for various big names in North London, and Porro is just one of many to be impacted.
