Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte expects club chairman Daniel Levy to get a deal done for Sporting Lisbon defender Pedro Porro by the end of this week, according to The Daily Star.
Tottenham to sign Pedro Porro in January
The report has claimed that Tottenham are close to completing a £35 million deal with Sporting for the transfer of right-back Porro in January.
Tottenham head coach Conte has been chasing the Spain international right-back for a while now, and the former Chelsea and Inter Milan boss expects Levy to get a deal done for him by the end of this week.
Exciting
In our view, it is really exciting that Tottenham Hotspur could make their first signing of the January transfer window so early.
It is important for any team that they get their transfer business done as soon as they can.
Porro cannot be expected to hit the ground running at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and will have to be given time to get used to Conte’s system.
If Tottenham are able to get a deal done for the 23-year-old in the coming days, then it will give the former Manchester City prospect a better chance to adjusting to life at Tottenham.
