The defender has a release clause of €45 million in his contract and Sporting are determined to hold out for that asking price.
Apparently, Tottenham have now decided to hold a fresh round of talks for the Spaniard today and Fabrizio Romano claims that Spurs will offer €37 million fixed fee plus add-ons.
Furthermore, the two clubs will discuss about one player to be included as a part of the deal as well. In theory, the offer looks quite promising and it will be interesting to see if Sporting are finally tempted to accept it.

Porro would add a new dimension to the side going forward. The 23-year-old has two goals and 10 assists across all competitions and he has the makings of an ideal Conte full-back.
Spurs will be desperate to secure Champions League qualification and signings like Porro will certainly boost their chances of a top-four finish.
