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.

However, Porro has not given up on sealing a winter move to Spurs after making a huge decision in the hopes a move can be agreed. According to Portuguese journalist Bruno Andrade, Porro missed the club's first training session back following their 2-0 loss to Porto on Saturday.
Fabrizio Romano then added that the two clubs are attempting to resolve the issues in the deal and are in a meeting where the result could ultimately decide where Porro plays his football for the next six months.
Tottenham undoubtedly face a crucial 24 hours to get the deal back on track and bring Antonio Conte his January transfer window priority that the club have been chasing for the entire trading period.
