Tottenham Hotspur has reportedly submitted a massive £85 million offer for Manchester City winger Savinho, with the 22-year-old Brazilian keen to make the move to North London. The Premier League giants are locked in negotiations, aiming to finalize a blockbuster transfer before the window slams shut.
According to Brazilian outlet Globo, Spurs have met City's valuation, but the finer details of the deal are proving to be a sticking point. Both clubs are expecting an intense negotiation period in the coming days, though there's optimism on both sides that an agreement will be reached before the September 1st deadline.
Savinho's determination to leave Manchester City appears to be crystal clear. He reportedly skipped Thursday's training session, a move that underlines his desire to join Tottenham immediately. While City sources cited illness for his absence, it's understood Savinho has reiterated his wish to depart to the club's hierarchy this week.
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano corroborated the situation on X, stating: "BREAKING: Savinho, not involved in Man City training today. City sources say absence due to illness, as @SamLee reports. Understand Savinho has been clear once again this week: he wants to leave and join Tottenham."
If this transfer goes through, Savinho would be the latest high-profile signing in what has been an incredibly ambitious summer for Tottenham. The club has already invested heavily in players like Mateus Fernandes, Sandro Tonali, and Jan Paul van Hecke, signaling their serious intent to compete at the top level this season. There are also whispers that more signings could be on the horizon for Spurs.
