With less than a month left for the summer transfer window to slam shut, Savinho will have to quickly decide where his future lies.
Savinho is open to joining Tottenham Hotspur but over the next few days is when one will truly discover if he is willing to take the brave step of leaving Manchester City after just one season.
The 21-year-old showed promise during the 2024/2025 campaign, starting in 33 games across all competitions.
However, much like Jerome Boateng, £21 million man, Savinho seems keen to explore new opportunities and in the German’s case, his decision to leave City to join Bayern Munich was a masterstroke.
Tottenham exploring Savinho and Eberechi Eze as separate deals
Savinho will have to take the right decision as players who have departed Pep Guardiola’s Sky Blues side have often declined elsewhere, with Raheem Sterling and Leroy Sane being prime examples.
Tottenham bid £43 million to sign Savinho, an approach that was rejected by Manchester City as they are looking to bank in excess of £50 million in the event that they choose to sell the Brazilian.

Journalist David Ornstein has provided an update around the situation by claiming that Spurs’ pursuit of the youngster and Eberechi Eze this summer are separate deals, as he told Sports Agents: “Tottenham are there as well exploring a deal [for Eze] alongside a deal for Savinho of Manchester City. They’re exploring both separately.”
“They would like to do both if they can which is quite interesting at Tottenham but not to my knowledge advanced on either case yet.”
The big reason why Savinho wants to play under Thomas Frank
Tottenham seem to pulling out the big guns this summer after securing Champions League football.
A key reason why Savinho wishes to play under Thomas Frank is because he believes that the Dane will make him a regular starter at Tottenham.
The Manchester City wonderkid is keen to be a regular starter and prove his worth to Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
Brazil have no shortage of wingers within their ranks, with Raphinha and Rodrygo well capable of playing on his favoured right flank and Vinicius Jr as well as Neymar being top-class left-sided wide forwards.
