Tottenham Hotspur have held talks with Manchester City over an unexpected deal to sign winger Savinho.

Dialogue has taken place between the clubs and a package worth in the region of €50million (£43.3m, $58.2m) is under discussion.

City are not actively looking to sell Savinho but he open to the possibility and Pep Guardiola tends not to stand in the way of player who wants to leave.

An agreement has not been reached but work continues as Spurs try to land the 21-year-old in a shock move.

Savinho joined City from Girona last summer and the Brazil international is contracted to them until June 2028.

The winger, who has scored one goal in 13 international appearances for Brazil, netted three times for Guardiola’s side across 48 appearances in 2024-25.

Having begun his career at Atletico Mineiro, he subsequently joined French club Troyes, part of the City Football Group (CFG).

He was loaned to PSV Eindhoven, where he made eight appearances in 2022-23, before in 2023-24 making a loan move to CFG sister club Girona, whom he helped to a top-four finish in La Liga and a first-ever club qualification to the Champions League, with 11 goals that term.

Savinho then made a permanent move to City, the flagship team of CFG, last summer.
