Pedro Porro is expected to sign for Tottenham Hotspur today.
Spurs have had real issues at right wing-back ever since the arrival of Antonio Conte.
But now, the north Londoners have secured a major deal to sign the 23-year-old whilst two looking to be heading out the exit door.
Matt Doherty and Djed Spence, who have both failed to secure a run of games in the team under Antonio Conte, are both abroad ready to complete loan moves away from the club.
