Tottenham hopeful on Porro deal
Tottenham are hopeful of concluding a deal for Sporting Lisbon defender Pedro Porro before the deadline next Tuesday.Further negotiations between the two clubs are taking place today.
Sources in Portugal claim Sporting may negotiate on the release clause.
Up until now, they’ve wanted the €45m release clause paid in full. But the fact talks are ongoing suggests Sporting could be open to relaxing their demands.
Tottenham have been reluctant to pay the full release clause up front.
Porro started on the bench for last night’s League Cup semi-final win at Arouca and Sporting head coach Ruben Amorim admits he’s unsure if he will play in Saturday’s final.
Meanwhile, Arnaut Danjuma had part of his medical with Spurs last night ahead of joining on a loan from Villarreal until the end of the season.
