๐งตSo this morningโs reports confirm that Sportingโs stubbornness over Pedro Porroโs โฌ45m (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 Conteโs 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.
