Overview
- Porto have set a €100m (£87m) release clause for the 21-year-old Spain international and have signalled they will not sell below that figure.
- Reporting suggests Porto could soften their stance if a substantial offer arrives due to financial pressures.
- Tottenham are viewed as the most engaged suitor and have discussed a loan with an option to purchase.
- Arsenal, Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest continue to monitor Aghehowa, with Newcastle having examined a deal in the summer without making a bid.
- Sourcing conflicts over whether Porto fully own his rights or Atletico Madrid hold 50% could complicate negotiations.
