The Baggies are standing firm over the striker’s future after they turned down a transfer request from him on Monday.
Spurs are understood to be some distance from Albion’s valuation of the England Under-21 striker, with a reported bid of £22m wide of the mark.
West Brom confirmed the second bid on Tuesday, and the club chairman Jeremy Peace said in a statement: “Our position remains unchanged. The sale of this player is not on our agenda.”
Spurs made their opening offer last Tuesday and were met with a firm refusal from the Baggies before the 22-year-old officially asked to leave on Monday. Berahino was dropped from the squad which lost 3-2 against Chelsea on Sunday after the manager Tony Pulis felt he was not in the right frame of mind to play.
It is understood Berahino was happy to face the champions but Pulis wanted to take him out of the spotlight and it is unlikely he will feature against Port Vale in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday.
