Brighton have no intention of letting him go and continue to demand a fee in excess of £100 million for them to consider a sale.
According to The Sun, Amorim’s side are looking at potential alternatives, with Sporting CP midfielder Morten Hjulmand on their shortlist.
Amorim knows the 26-year-old having spent just over a year together at the Portuguese champions, who are demanding a fee of £50m.
