Fabrizio Romano provides huge £60m Savinho to Tottenham transfer update

Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are now willing to break the bank to sign Savinho from Manchester City before the transfer window slams shut on September 1.

It was reported last week that after missing out on Eberechi Eze, Spurs are willing to pull out all the stops to land Savinho.

However, a deal for the Brazilian is not expected to be straightforward, with reports indicating that one member of the Man City hierarchy is blocking Savinho’s exit.

It appears that the Lilywhites are not deterred and are now expected to push ahead with a big offer for the 21-year-old.

Tottenham are willing to spend big on Savinho

This update comes from Fabrizio Romano, who has revealed that less than 24 hours after beating Manchester City, Spurs are ready to offer Pep Guardiola’s side big money for the winger.

Romano claims that the North London side are willing to bid upwards of €70m (£60.6m) for Savinho, and adds that they will ‘try until the end’ to get the deal over the line.

The journalist adds that the former Girona man is keen on the move to N17, with the deal now dependent on Man City.

Romano wrote: “Confirmed: Tottenham Hotspur want to go over €70m for Savinho and will try until the end to get the deal done. Savio, keen on Spurs move and now all depends on Manchester City.”

Why Spurs’ pursuit of Savinho may have got more complicated

It was previously revealed by some sources that Pep Guardiola does not want to lose Savinho this summer.

His resolve to hold onto the Brazilian may have just increased after Saturday’s result, Tottenham exposing the holes in the Man City side.

According to reports from City sources, it will take an astronomical offer for Spurs to prise Savinho away from the Etihad Stadium.
