Manchester City is undergoing significant changes as the club prepares for a transformative summer. With the confirmed departure of Pep Guardiola, former Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca is expected to take charge ahead of the 2026/27 season. The club is also facing the impending exit of veteran players including John Stones and Bernardo Silva, prompting an urgent search for new talent.
Details: As reported by the Spanish outlet AS, Manchester City is eyeing a move to reacquire former player Pedro Porro, currently a right-back at Tottenham. The 26-year-old Spain international is at the center of a developing situation, with Tottenham aiming to extend his contract beyond 2028. However, negotiations have not yet yielded success, prompting Manchester City to approach the player.
Sources indicate that City has already made initial contact with the intention of finalizing a transfer before the World Cup begins. Both Porro and Tottenham have been made aware of Manchester City’s interest in the player.
Tottenham has set an asking price of £50 million (over €57 million) for Porro’s transfer. As the defender is currently earning £85,000 a week, he would likely seek a substantial salary increase should he move to the Etihad. This season, Porro has made 47 appearances for Spurs, scoring 2 goals and providing 6 assists, with Transfermarkt estimating his value at €40 million.
