Tottenham’s right-back situation has been a hot topic of conversation recently, with the club making some interesting decisions in that position. The latest news coming out of North London is that the club will not be pursuing other right-back options, despite links to Vanderson from Monaco and Issa Kabore from Manchester City.
In a recent interview, club insider Gold revealed that Tottenham will be relying on Porro and Spence as their right-back options for the upcoming season. “We have faith in Porro’s abilities and believe that he can be a key player for us this season,” Gold stated. “Spence will provide cover and competition, but Porro will be our first choice.”
Many fans have questioned the decision to not bring in another right-back, especially with Porro’s injury history. However, Gold defended the club’s stance, stating that if Porro can stay fit, then having Spence as a backup for cup competitions is a sensible choice.
“If Porro stays fit, keeping Spence to play minutes in cup competitions is a great idea,” Gold explained. “However, given Porro’s importance to Postecoglou’s side, it seems that an injury would leave Spurs too weak in that area and potentially derail their season.”
It will be interesting to see how Tottenham’s right-back situation plays out this season, with Porro and Spence set to battle it out for the starting spot. With no other options in the pipeline, the pressure will be on both players to perform to the best of their abilities and help Tottenham achieve success in the upcoming campaign.
