🧵So this morning’s reports confirm that Sporting’s stubbornness over Pedro Porro’s €45m (release clause is a stumbling block for #Spurs.
Whilst I have optimism that a deal will still be reached, it would be smart to profile alternative RWB options who would fit Conte’s system:
First though, what makes a Conte wing-back:
Physicality + stamina. The ability to dominate a flank for 90 minutes.
Technical capability. Good combination play with the 10 + consistent, accurate deliveries from wide.
Goal scoring instincts, timing + finishing at the back post.
Wilfred Singo - 22 - Ivorian - Torino - contract expires 2024
Ridle Baku - 24 - German - Wolfsburg - contract expires 2025
Alexander Bah - 25 - Danish - Benfica - contract expires 2027
Vanderson - 21 - Brazilian - AS Monaco - contract expires 2027
And here for context are Pedro Porro’s numbers for shooting, passing, defence and possession.
