Tottenham Set to Break Bank for Savinho as Transfer Talks Intensify

Tottenham Hotspur are ready to pay more than €70 million to sign Brazilian winger Savinho, with the player pushing for a move. The transfer now depends on Manchester City’s decision, with Spurs determined to get the deal done before the window closes.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Tottenham have made Savinho their top target and are prepared to offer over €70 million to secure his services. The club held further talks with Manchester City after facing them in the Premier League this weekend. Savinho, who impressed on his first season in England last season, wants to join Spurs, but Manchester City must decide whether to accept the bid. Negotiations are expected to continue until the end of the transfer window, with Spurs reportedly ready to make a record-breaking offer to land the Brazilian talent. As recently reported, Tottenham’s efforts to sign Savinho have faced obstacles as Manchester City is not keen on letting the player leave.

TOTTENHAM’S PUSH FOR THE TOP

Tottenham are pushing hard to strengthen their squad after a mixed start to the Premier League season. As of August 24, 2025, they sit top in the table, with 2 wins in two matches. The team has shown improvement in attack but needs more firepower to return to the top four. Adding Savinho, who scored 9 goals and provided 10 assists in the Premier League last season, would address the need for creativity and goals from wide areas. He is seen as a player who can help Tottenham keep pace with their top six rivals. Interestingly, reports indicate that Tottenham still wants to sign Savinho, and they are likely to make a new bid soon.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR SPURS AND MAN CITY?

Tottenham will continue talks with Manchester City in the coming days, hoping to finalize the transfer before the window shuts. Spurs next play Bournemouth, who have one win and one loss in the league so far. Both teams are fighting for European places, making the match crucial for their season ambitions. Manchester City, meanwhile, lost ground in the Premier League table and face Brighton next, looking to recover from this weekend’s loss to Tottenham, having recently won their opening match against Wolves 4-0. The outcome of the Savinho deal could shape the rest of Tottenham’s campaign, and fans will be watching closely as negotiations reach their final stages.
