Club now regret allowing £40m player to join Tottenham Hotspur
Real Madrid is now regretting the uncommon error of passing up the chance to sign a gifted player.
The club deeply regrets not signing Tottenham fullback Pedro Porro, according to the Bernabeu Digital report.
According to the report, Porro was interested in joining Los Blancos from Sporting prior to his transfer to Spurs, and at one point, they may have done so for as little as €40 million.
The board of Madrid chose to stick with Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez, which gave Spurs the opportunity to make a move for Porro.
The Spanish right-back is currently regarded as one of the best in the world, according to the report, and Madrid’s interest has reportedly faded.
After joining Tottenham for £40 million in January of last year, he faced some criticism at first, but he has since quietly proven his skeptics wrong.
He has given constantly strong performances, especially under Ange, and has grown to be a vital member of the Australian team.

Tottenham told they sold one of the best defenders in Europe, now worth £46m
After being traded by Tottenham Hotspur for “one of the most dependable defenders in Europe,” Juan Foyth, a former Premier League misfit for Villarreal, is currently a £46 million target for teams like Juventus.
Unfortunately for the Argentina international, Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen were there when he played for Tottenham Hotspur. And after joining Spurs in 2017 from Estudiantes, Juan Foyth hardly had any luck, as the team had maybe the best center-back duo in England for a large portion of the Mauricio Pochettino tenure.
And if Foyth was meant to have an opening once Pochettino was fired, it was blocked once more with the hiring of Jose Mourinho.In spite of his denials, Mourinho has never been one to throw inexperienced players right into the deep end, so it was not shocking when Foyth finally left when Real Madrid struck a £13 million agreement with the London giants.
Juan Foyth has shone since leaving Tottenham Hotspur
In his three years in Spain, Foyth has advanced significantly.
Because his client is one of the best defenders on the continent right now, the 25-year-old’s agent has convinced teams like Barcelona and Juventus that their client is worth their consideration.
Claudio Curti says Sport Italia, “Juan is without a doubt one of the most reliable defenders in Europe today,” emphasizing Foyth’s tactical adaptability, which would have been extremely helpful under current Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou.
He is a master at playing three different parts. He is a true professional and a highly complete player. He could demonstrate his abilities and play in Serie A with ease.
Moving in January is not impossible. The release clause (now valued at £46 million) remains. However, we may discuss it with Villarreal in any situation.
A World Cup winner with Argentina
Foyth was a part of the team that won the 2022 World Cup under Lionel Scaloni.
In the winter transfer window, Tottenham hopes to add a new defender to North London; players like Koki Machida, Marcell Thiaw, and Sebastian Cacares are all being connected.
A significant portion of Postecoglou’s Celtic success has already been attributed to his introduction of Japanese athletes to the United Kingdom, including Kyogo Furuhashi, Daizen Maeda, and Reo Hatate.
