Spurs are negotiating with Manchester City for Brazilian winger Savinho, with a deal possible if the player requests to leave.
Tottenham Hotspur have opened talks with Manchester City over the signing of Brazilian winger Savinho, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing, with sources indicating the deal could cost in excess of £45 million. While City’s preference is to keep the 20-year-old, they would consider a sale if Savinho himself asks to leave.
The player is understood to be open to joining Spurs, provided both clubs can reach an agreement on the transfer fee and personal terms.
City’s Stance on Savinho Exit

That puts the ball firmly in the winger’s court as discussions progress.

Analyst Verdict
Savinho’s pace, close control, and creativity from wide areas would give Thomas Frank a new attacking weapon at Spurs. From reviewing his recent games, his ability to stretch defences and deliver precise final balls could add a missing spark to Tottenham’s forward line. The £45m+ fee is significant, but at 20 years old, he represents both an immediate and long-term investment.
