Tottenham may face three games without Pedro Porro

Pedro Porro

Pedro Porro has travelled to Spain to continue rehabilitation with specialists after suffering a hamstring injury against Aston Villa, with a reported absence of around a month putting a return before the end of October in view, but far from confirmed.

The Tottenham right-back lasted 19 minutes of the 3-2 defeat to Villa before going off injured. The primary report attributes the update on his trip to Spanish outlet Hoy; Porro has also withdrawn from Spain’s upcoming Nations League qualifiers.

His recovery work follows Porro’s hamstring injury and withdrawal from Spain duty, with the latest update describing a specialist visit during the international break.

Three fixtures in the reported window

Porro travelled to Badajoz to work with Policlínica Axis, a specialist clinic that the report says previously helped him and Fabián Ruiz prepare for the World Cup. The work is described as covering both rehabilitation and performance optimisation, rather than simply waiting for the injury to settle.

If the estimated month out proves accurate, Porro could miss Manchester United away on 10 October, Coventry City at home on 20 October and Chelsea away on 24 October. That is a possible three-match absence, not a club-confirmed schedule, and the Chelsea fixture sits close to the suggested return window.

The reported timeline is a more encouraging prospect than the sustained absence some supporters initially feared. But there is no exact return date, and the source does not provide an injury grade or a confirmed reassessment date. Porro’s fitness assessment and return management remain relevant context, but the current update does not turn a recovery estimate into medical clearance.

A cautious return remains the only sensible reading

Porro had made three Premier League appearances by 29 September, recording two key passes, three tackles, one interception and nine duels won, according to the figures published with the update. Those numbers offer a snapshot of his involvement; they do not tell us when he will be fit to add to them.

He could return before October is out if the approximately one-month estimate holds. The three listed matches remain possible absences, while his availability for any of them is still unconfirmed; Porro’s earlier return to Tottenham’s bench offers a reminder that recovery updates can develop in stages. For now, the specialist work is a positive step, not a date in the team sheet.
