Sporting have yet to receive an acceptable offer for the Fulham, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur target, Jovane Cabral, according to A Bola.
It is claimed that both Fulham and West Ham have bid for Cabral, along with Hertha Berlin and an unnamed Italian side, while Tottenham are ‘also attentive’.
But those proposals are said to have reached just €15 million (around £13.4m), which is some way short of Sporting’s €35m (around £31.4m) valuation.
The Portuguese side would, however, consider selling the winger for €20m (around £18m) if they are guaranteed a percentage of any future sale, according to A Bola.
It is also claimed that while Cabral’s departure is still a ‘serious possibility’ – and the player is described as being ‘open’ to leaving – he could yet stay and sign a new contract.
Cabral scored or made nine goals in 16 league games for the Portuguese giants last season – all but three of which arrived in an eight-match spell following the June restart – and was quick to catch the eye of both Fulham and West Ham, according to reports.
But Tottenham’s interest appears to be more recent. Record reported last week that while the Cape Verde native is ‘well-known’ to Jose Mourinho, the Spurs manager has ‘other goals in mind’ this window.
Fulham, West Ham, Tottenham or neither – who’ll get their hands on Cabral?
