Tottenham and Chelsea get Pedro Porro transfer ultimatum as £39m deal hinges on one key point

Sporting coach Ruben Amorim has delivered a message to Chelsea and Tottenham amid speculation that star player Pedro Porro could leave the club this window. The former Manchester City wing-back has come onto the radar of both clubs as both Antonio Conte and Graham Potter look to strengthen their backline.

The Italian has had to choose between a selection of options on the right side, giving Matt Doherty a recent run after growing frustrated with Emerson Royal. Summer signing Djed Spence hasn't made the desired impact since moving from Middlesbrough last year.

Potter, on the other hand, has lost Reece James twice already due to injury since arriving in September, and has no like-for-like backup for the Englishman with Cesar Azpilicueta ageing. Whereas Chelsea have already shown their winter ambition by signing five players - with Noni Madueke expected to make that six this week - Spurs haven't been active yet.
