Tottenham open club to club talks to sign ‘unbelievable’ Man City star; player keen on a move
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham have opened direct talks with Manchester City over the signing of highly rated winger Savinho.
Negotiations between the two Premier League clubs are now underway, with Spurs pushing to secure a deal before the end of the transfer window.
Spurs have made several signings this summer with the high-profie arrivals being Mohammed Kudus and Joao Palhinha.
They are expected to remain active in the market to make attacking and creative additions as they prepare for life without Son Heung-min.

The Europa League winners are preparing their squad to challenge in the Champions League next season and for that, more quality and depth is needed.
Savinho is believed to be open to making the move to North London. While personal terms are not expected to be an obstacle, the final outcome will depend on whether Tottenham and Man City can reach an agreement on the transfer fee.
New Spurs manager Thomas Frank has identified Savinho as the ideal player to strengthen his forward line.
The Brazilian winger is known for his pace and his dribbling skills. Although his output last season was not great for Pep Guardiola’s side, his involvement in the final third and the spark he provides was crucial.
The reason why Frank particularly likes Savinho is because he is a versatile player who can play in a number of different positions in the attacking area.
The player has huge, unfulfilled potential and it comes as a huge surprise that City are looking to work on a deal to sell him this summer.
Savinho is open to a move to Spurs
At the age of 21, he has a long way to go in his career and the signs are promising. The way Guardiola has worked with young players at the Etihad Stadium and made them word beaters makes it more confusing why he is open to the sale of Savinho this summer.
If the deal goes through, Savinho could become one of Spurs’ marquee signings of the summer, signalling the club’s ambition to compete aggressively on both domestic and European fronts.
With talks now active and the player open to the move, all eyes will be on whether the two clubs can bridge the gap in valuation and bring this exciting transfer to life.
Guardiola has praised Savinho in the past by calling him ‘unbelievable’.
