Tottenham make shock move for Manchester City’s Savinho | OneFootball

Tottenham have made a surprise move for Savinho but Manchester City are not interested in selling the winger.

Talks have taken place between the Europa League winners and the former Premier League champions but City want to keep the 21-year-old.

City also believe Savinho is worth much more than a mooted price of €50m after his encouraging first year at the Etihad Stadium.

Now Guardiola has said his squad is too big after making six summer signings but the players City are keenest to offload include Jack Grealish, after Everton made an approach to take him on loan, James McAtee, who is of interest to several clubs, and goalkeeper Stefan Ortega.

Savinho got eight assists in the Premier League in his first season at City, following a £31m move from their sister club Troyes. He had excelled on loan at Girona in 2023-24, helping them qualify for the Champions League.

Tottenham turned their attentions to Savinho after already signing one right winger this summer, with the £55m addition of Mohammed Kudus from West Ham.

However, the Ghanaian can also play as a No. 10 and Tottenham were frustrated in their attempt to sign Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest before losing James Maddison for the majority of the season with a cruciate ligament injury.
