Tottenham remain in active negotiations with Manchester City for their winger.
Tottenham Hotspur are now fully focused on strengthening their attacking department after adding quality players to other areas of the squad during a busy summer transfer window.
Manchester City’s Savinho has been the top attacking target this summer. Spurs continue to explore a move for the 22-year-old, who wants to leave the Etihad Stadium to resurrect his career. He is an attractive target for the Lilywhites due to his ability to play on both flanks, age, potential and Premier League experience.
Spurs look to believe there is a realistic chance of signing Savinho due to the time and effort they are putting into a potential deal. It has been indicated that negotiations with Manchester City could enter a decisive phase in the coming days as Tottenham prepare to intensify their efforts.
Brazilian journalist claims the operation Savinho will cost over £70m
Recent reports suggested that Man City are prepared to accept an offer in the region of £60 million for Savinho. Having endured a tough last season that yielded five goals and three assists across 39 total appearances, the Brazilian winger has grown desperate to secure a guaranteed starting role away from the Sky Blues.
He is keen on a move to Spurs, who are willing to offer the 22-year-old the platform to establish himself as a regular starter under Roberto De Zerbi. It is crucial for the North Londoners to get the deal over the line for the player after spending the best part of the summer chasing him.
Now, reputed journalist Bruno Andrade has provided a significant update on Tottenham’s chase of Savinho. He specifically says Spurs are “in a hurry” to complete the signing and have no intention of dragging negotiations towards the end of the transfer window. The ESPN Brazil reporter says the transfer will “comfortably” exceed £70m, with the player having spoken to De Zerbi more than once.
Despite his desire to leave the club and join Tottenham, the South American trickster has been involved in City’s pre-season campaign under new boss Enzo Maresca. And the diminutive attacker has done well in the games he has played. Getting minutes under his tank would provide Savinho with match sharpness that he requires to hit the ground running in the new season, hopefully at Tottenham.
It appeared that the deal had stalled in recent weeks. However, the reliable Bruno Andrade’s update gives the fans hope that a breakthrough is not far. Savinho wants the move, De Zerbi is keen to quickly integrate him into his squad, and the latest piece of information points towards the North Londoners being prepared to satisfy City’s financial demands.
Hopefully, the deal gets wrapped up this week, and the Brazilian international becomes available to feature in Tottenham’s first game of the season vs. Brentford.
