Porro becomes fourth Spurs player to win World Cup

[Getty Images] Tottenham right-back Pedro Porro will return to North London as a world champion having played his part in Spain's 2026 World Cup win. Porro followed up on his solid display in the semi-final against France to play a part in the move that produced Ferran Torres' winning goal in the second-half of extra-time in New Jersey. Cristian Romero and Marcos Senesi's Argentina didn't produce one shot on target throughout the entirety of the game as Spain dominated. Porro's success makes him the fourth Spurs player in history to win the World Cup, following Jimmy Greaves (1966), Hugo Lloris (2018) and Cristian Romero (2022). Summer signing Senesi, Romero and Porro will now have three weeks to rest and recover, as per Fifa guidelines, before returning to Tottenham for the 2026-27 Premier League season. Roberto de Zerbi's side kick off the new campaign at Brentford on Saturday, 22 August.
