Tottenham Hotspur are advancing in talks to seal a double deal for Man City forwards Savinho and Omar Marmoush, according to David Ornstein.
Spurs have already made six signings so far this summer, bringing in goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, defenders Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, and Jan Paul van Hecke, alongside midfielders Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali.
But manager Roberto De Zerbi stated that he felt that was only 60% of the club's business that needed to be done in this window, and it has now emerged that the club are pushing hard to make big changes to their forward line too.
Man City star Savinho has emerged as a top target, with talks ongoing over a deal that could reach £85m, while Liverpool star Cody Gakpo is also understood to be someone who is liked by the club, with the player also keen on a move to north London.
However, a third addition is also wanted by De Zerbi, and it has now emerged that the club are in advanced talks with Man City over a double deal for Marmoush and Savinho.
Nothing is finalised at this stage, however, talks are understood to be advancing. 27-year-old Marmoush is considered likely to leave the Etihad this summer, and Spurs are now pushing ahead to make him part of De Zerbi's squad.
Marmoush joined Man City from Eintracht Frankfurt in January 2025 on a four-and-a-half-year contract, worth a reported £250,000-a-week. But he has struggled for regular first-team football since his arrival, finding himself behind Erling Haaland in the pecking order, which means he was restricted to just 700 minutes of Premier League action last season.
With Enzo Maresca now at the helm at the Etihad Stadium, it's unclear if he remains in the manager's plans for the upcoming season or if City would be willing to let him leave in the final weeks of the window.
'Unbelievable' Marmoush Ready to Make a Difference
Marmoush's start to life in the Premier League was exhilarating, but he has since struggled to find a rhythm and fitness that has got the best out of him.
But speaking in January after he returned from the African Cup of Nations, former manager Pep Guardiola praised him as 'unbelievable' and 'special'.
“Last season when he arrived for three months he was unbelievable; without him it would not be possible to qualify for the Champions League and reach the FA Cup final,” said Guardiola.
“He’s a special player, not old ,not young but he has margin to improve.
“His dynamic energy and runs are really good. I see him more as a striker not a proper winger. He’s a guy for transition actions.
