TOTTENHAM are reportedly set to have further talks over a transfer for Pedro Porro.
The Sporting Lisbon star is highly rated in Portugal and his club are only willing to sell him for his release clause.

The 23-year-old wing-back‘s release clause is £40million.
Spurs want to hold further talks with the Portuguese side to see if a deal can be struck, according to the Daily Mail.
Former Manchester City prospect, Porro has excelled since breaking into the Sporting side.
This season he has scored once and assisted five goals in 12 league games as well as helping on the defensive side of the game too.
Manager Antonio Conte are in need of a new right-wing-back after Emerson Royal and Matt Doherty‘s inconsistent performances.
While summer signing Djed Spence has barely been given a chance to feature under the Italian boss.
Conte admitted when Spence signed that he was a club “investment” rather than one of his targets.
He said: “Spence is an investment of the club. The club wanted to do it.

“I said ‘OK, this player is young but he showed he can become a good, important player for us’.
“The club decided to buy him.”
Porro is not the only Sporting player to have been linked with Spurs.
Marcus Edwards, who used to be in the Spurs academy, has gathered interest from the North London side, but like Porro, Sporting are demanding that his release clause be met if they are to sell him.
The 24-year-old’s buy-out clause is £52million.
