The 21-year-old has scored 10 league goals and bagged four more in the Champions League less than a year after breaking into the first team.
Arsene Wenger as well as Manchester United's Jose Mourinho were thought to be keen on the player, but the Daily Star reports that Madrid have told cash-strapped Porto they could offer up to £50m once their transfer embargo lifts in the summer.
Rumours in the Spanish press suggest Antoine Griezmann's possible departure from Atletico Madrid could see the Spanish club make Alexis Sanchez top of their transfer wishlist.
The Chilean forward's future at the club has been the subject of intense speculation in recent weeks, and heightened after his visible frustration during the side's draw against Bournemouth last Tuesday.
If Griezmann completes a move to Manchester United, which seems unlikely given his recent comments, then Don Balon reports that Diego Simeone wants to use the money to sign Sanchez.
Ronald Koeman is rumoured to be eyeing up a move for Arsenal's out-on-loan midfielder Jack Wilshere.
The 25-year-old, who has struggled to hold down a first-team place at the Emirates, has won plaudits for his performances at Bournemouth this season.
Everton might make a bid for the England international in the summer when Wilshere will have just 12 months left on his contract, according to the Mirror.
