Tottenham Not Giving Up on Savinho: Summer Saga Continues

Tottenham Hotspur still want to sign Savinho from Manchester City. Both the player and the club are eager to complete the transfer before the window closes.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Tottenham‘s first offer for Savinho, about £60 million, was rejected by Manchester City last week. City want a higher fee, between £70 and £80 million, for the 21-year-old winger. Despite this, Savinho is eager to move, as confirmed by reports. Tottenham are expected to return with a higher offer soon. Negotiations continue. While Manchester City aren’t actively looking to sell Savinho, a better offer might change their mind, as they view him as an important player in the squad.

THE SEASON SO FAR FOR BOTH CLUBS AND SAVINHO

Tottenham want to strengthen their attack by signing Savinho. They are currently on top of the Premier League after a win in their opening match, with their season opening win against Burnley. There is promise under Thomas Frank, but they need more depth. Meanwhile, Manchester City lead the table, also winning their opening against Wolves. Savinho, brought to England after a good spell at Girona in La Liga, has played just 27 minutes this season due to City’s strong squad. A move to Tottenham, where he can get more game time, seems appealing for the Brazilian winger.

WHAT’S NEXT?

Tottenham will face Manchester City next. Forest finished 7th in the table, guaranteeing a spot in the Conference League. Tottenham are likely to make a new bid for Savinho soon; according to reports, if their offer meets City’s demands, Savinho might join Spurs before the transfer window shuts—a move that can boost Tottenham’s Champions League hopes.
