Pedro Porro has made his feelings on Tottenham teammate James Maddison perfectly clear following two major announcements. The duo have been key in Spurs' impressive recent run of form with Porro as just one of four players to retain his place in the starting XI for Thursday's Europa League win against Ferencvaros.
With Destiny Udogie absent through injury, Porro was required to invert and bomb down the touchline with Ben Davies and Archie Gray filling in at left-back.
As a result of his performances for Spurs, Porro has been rewarded on the international stage with a call-up to the Spain squad for the first time since March. , however Maddison missed out.
Despite having performed at a high level for the last few weeks, the attacking midfielder was ruthlessly left out seemingly because of the options Lee Carsley has in his position. Though Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden are ahead of him in the pecking order, Porro is confident Maddison will be back very soon.
In response to his Spain return, Maddison wrote on Tottenham's post: "About time!!!! Congrats Peter! @PedroPorro29_ [two white heart emojis]". Porro then replied: "@Madders your time will come [flexed arm and white heart emoji] the fight is not negotiated [heart faced emoji]."
As he sees the work Maddison puts in on a daily basis, Porro is clearly full of belief that his fellow Tottenham star will be back on the international stage very soon.

"In the last two or three weeks he's had an effect on goals and assists as well, which always gets highlighted with players in his position, but his general play has been outstanding. I'm sure if he continues in that vein he will be in the conversation for England squads moving forward."
