Tottenham's Interest in Savinho Cools as Fee Negotiations with Manchester City Stall
Tottenham Hotspur's pursuit of Brazilian winger Savinho has slowed due to a significant gap in transfer fee expectations with Manchester City, according to Brazilian media outlet Globo Esporte. Spurs initiated contact early in the summer transfer window, but negotiations have made little progress in recent weeks. The 22-year-old Savinho has returned to Manchester City's pre-season training for the 2026/27 season, though his future remains uncertain. Tottenham manager De Zerbi sees Savinho as an ideal addition to boost wing speed and creativity, as the team struggled offensively while fighting relegation last season. Savinho, who joined Manchester City in 2024/25 after a strong spell at Girona, has limited playing time under Pep Guardiola, making him open to a transfer. He signed a contract extension with City until June 2031 last October amid previous Tottenham interest. Spurs maintain contact and may renew efforts if the negotiation environment changes.
