Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly on the brink of signing Manchester City winger Savinho, with insider Paul O'Keefe suggesting a transfer fee in the region of £55 million to £60 million. This significant investment signals a strong intent from the North London club to back new manager Roberto De Zerbi and rebuild the squad.
Following consecutive 17th-place finishes, Spurs are eager to bolster their attacking options. The 22-year-old Brazilian international has been identified as the primary target for the summer transfer window, with the deal described as "near completion" by Fabrizio Romano.
Reliable Tottenham insider Paul O'Keefe shared the financial details on social media platform X, estimating the cost to be "close to 55m maybe 60 (pounds)." If finalized at this price point, it would represent one of Tottenham's most substantial investments, approaching their club record fee.
Manchester City is understood to be willing to sell Savinho, who experienced limited game time under Pep Guardiola, especially after the arrival of Antoine Semenyo. The Brazilian is seeking regular first-team opportunities to fulfill his potential.
Securing Savinho would be a major statement of intent for Tottenham under De Zerbi. The winger previously impressed during a loan spell at Girona and is seen as a player who could thrive in De Zerbi's system. This potential signing, alongside earlier acquisitions like Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi, indicates the club's commitment to providing De Zerbi with the resources needed to elevate the team in the Premier League.
