Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly launched a €70m bid for Manchester City winger Savinho this summer, as Spurs look to add firepower to Roberto De Zerbi’s attack. The 22-year-old Brazilian has caught the eye in patches for Man City, scoring four goals and making three assists in 36 appearances last season across all competitions. With his contract at the Etihad Stadium running until 2031, Spurs face a tough negotiation to land him on the cheap.
What does Savinho bring to Tottenham Hotspur?
Savinho is a left-footed winger who can also play on the right or as a number ten. He’s comfortable taking on defenders, delivering killer passes in and around the box, and firing shots from long range. His dribbling and driving runs make him a constant threat in wide areas, though he’ll need more first-team minutes to sharpen his edge. The Brazilian already knows the Premier League well, which should ease his transition to North London.
Why is this move a smart play for Spurs?
At 22, Savinho sits in the sweet spot between raw potential and proven output. His versatility lets De Zerbi shuffle formations, while his creativity and goals add another dimension to an attack that managed just 48 goals last season. With Spurs finishing 17th in the Premier League last time out-41 points from 38 games, 10 wins, 11 draws, 17 losses, and recent form of WLDWW-Savinho could push for a starting role from day one. His arrival would also ease pressure on players like Wilson Odobert, currently sidelined.
What’s next for the transfer?
The €70m bid is a strong opening offer, but City may demand more given Savinho’s contract runs until 2031. Spurs will need to move fast, as other clubs could enter the race for a player many rate as one of Brazil’s brightest wide talents. If the deal stalls, Spurs risk losing out on a player who could define their attack for years to come.
Tottenham Hotspur sit 44 points behind Arsenal in the title race, and every upgrade matters. Savinho’s blend of flair, creativity, and Premier League experience makes him a gamble worth taking-if the numbers add up.
As of today, Wilson Odobert remains sidelined, leaving Spurs light in attack and hungry for reinforcements.
