Pedro Porro's training ground image shows why he's on another level to Tottenham team-mates

Pedro Porro has shown why he's arguably the fittest player at Tottenham Hotspur after turning up at the club's training ground early ahead of pre-season training.

In a Spursseason packed with injuries to his team-mates, the 25-year-old Spaniard was one of the few players not to suffer a single one across the last campaign and he ended up playing 51 matches and a remarkable 4,130 minutes of football for the club on the way to that Europa League triumph and another 503 for his country after returning to the international set-up.

His former boss Ange Postecoglou told football.london about the right-back: "He's played more than anyone else this year, he's been unbelievable for us, not just in his durability which has been important because with so many players going down, we've needed at least a few to be durable like he has, but also the quality he's shown.

"[His playmaking ability is] really important and it's something we're continually working on to get him on the ball in more key areas and also work on his positioning a little bit as well. He does have such quality with his ability to hit the longer pass, but also the quality of his crosses, every time he puts the ball in the box, whether that's a set piece or just a cross in general, it causes oppositions problems."

It looks like Porro is preparing his body for another big season under a new head coach at Spurs in the shape of Thomas Frank.

Although the Tottenham players are due to start returning to Hotspur Way on Saturday, with the internationals like Porro due in next week, the Spaniard was already back at the training ground in Enfield on Friday. He posted an image of himself smiling inside the club's gym with the caption: "The champ is here! Glad to be back @spursofficial."

Porro told football.london earlier this year about some of the work that goes into creating the amazing engine he has within to keep running up and down the flank for 90-plus minutes.

"I train at the club but I also do my own work outside the club, recovery work, prevention of injury," he said.

"It's okay because I work with the physio in the gym. The people outside don't understand this situation, they say Pedro you have to rest, you haven't rested. For me and Deki, we've played full minutes this season, this is normal, this is football. Too many games, but I'm ready. If the gaffer asks 'are you ready?', I say 'yeah, no problem'. Everything for the team, for the fans and for the club, it's the most important thing for me."

It looks like Frank will benefit from a super-fit Porro himself this season and the Spaniard appears to be ready and raring to go.
