Tottenham have held talks to sign a new winger ahead of the summer transfer window, and he could be a better option than Manchester City star Savinho.

Savinho has been a target for Tottenham over the last couple of windows, but they failed to get a deal over the line.

With Pep Guardiola leaving Man City, it'll be interesting to see if his situation at the Etihad Stadium changes, because there's no doubt he's frustrated at the moment.

Savinho started just 7 Premier League games during the 2025-2026 season, playing a total of 833 minutes. As a result, a departure can't be ruled out, but it remains to be seen whether he would make the move to Tottenham.

Tottenham do appear to have alternative targets, and we are yet to see who they commit to trying to sign.

Tottenham Hold Talks for Alternative Winger

According to reports, Tottenham have held talks to sign RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Bundesliga club are believed to be holding out for a fee in the region of £87 million, but if he refuses to sign a new deal, there's a chance that could drop.

Diomande, who has been described as 'outrageous', is also believed to have interest from other clubs such as Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain, but there's no doubt he's likely to receive more game time if he were to join Tottenham.

Unfortunately for Spurs, being without any European football could be a problem, but they should certainly be looking to at least try to secure his signature this summer.

Diomande a Better Option Than Savinho

Making a move to sign RB Leipzig winger Diomande would be better for Tottenham than forking out for Man City winger Savinho.

Diomande has age on his side, at just 19 years old, and he's already making a significant impact at a strong level.

The Ivory Coast forward provided 19 goals and assists in the Bundesliga during the 2025-2026 campaign, despite being far from reaching his full potential.

Savinho is coming off a disappointing season where he struggled to make an impact, whereas Diomande is in red-hot form.

The Leipzig winger will likely cost more and be a difficult deal to complete, but Tottenham need to ask the question again.
