The 23-year-old Spanish international had hoped he would be in London on Monday to complete a medical ahead of his move, but he yet to get the green light.

Porro agreed personal terms with Tottenham earlier in the week and played what he hoped would be his final game for Sporting on Saturday evening as they lost the League Cup final to Porto, appearing to bid farewell to supporters after the final whistle.

Sporting were confident a deal would be done, hence their agreement with Barcelona to land Hector Bellerin as his replacement - as confirmed by 90min on Sunday.
