Pedro Porro makes major decision as Tottenham and Sporting enter crucial transfer talks

Pedro Porro has made the decision to miss Sporting CP's training session on Monday after his proposed transfer to Tottenham fell apart. The two clubs had reached a verbal agreement for the 23-year-old but Sporting had a change of heart over certain details of the deal.

Negotiations progressed significantly last week and a move appeared at it's final stages with Porro saying goodbye to the Sporting fans following their Taca de Portugal final defeat to Porto. A plan was in place for the wing-back to travel to London after the game and complete a medical on Monday.

However, football.london understands negotiations took another turn in the wrong direction as the weekend came to a close and the medical was cancelled. The 23-year-old is said to be distraught after Sporting president told the wing-back that following Saturday’s League Cup final he would be allowed to leave.
