And Spurs have initiated contact with Sporting over potentially signing Goncalves, according to Record in Portugal.
Goncalves, who can play out wide or in the middle, previously spent time with Wolves.
But some Tottenham fans have been left baffled by the rumours.
Supporters have questioned why work is reportedly being done on transfers, despite the club not currently having a permanent manager.
Transfer chief Fabio Paratici also quit the club in midweek after he failed to overturn his ban from certain football activities.
One aggrieved fan wrote on Twitter: “Signing players without having a manager is very Spursy. The board need to step down ASAP.”
Another said: “Doing this without an official permanent manager being put in place first. This club…”
And a third quipped: “I’m honestly so confused by us. What even are we.”

Last month Goncalves helped Sporting knock Spurs’ arch-rivals Arsenal out of the Europa League.
He scored an incredible goal from close to the halfway line as Sporting knocked the Gunners out on penalties.
