Tottenham are not done in the summer transfer window, and they could yet go after a Premier League attacker not named Savinho. Spurs have already spent more than £235million on new recruits so far, spending big on the likes of Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes and Jan Paul van Hecke, while there have also been some smart deals, like the free signings of Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson.
But there is more big spending to come, even with this window already being a record-breaking window for Tottenham, with Roberto De Zerbi hoping to sign an attacker. Manchester City star Savinho has been heavily linked, but it could be one of the Brazilian's teammates that Spurs end up pursuing.
Tottenham now considering Omar Marmoush deal
Tottenham's attacker search could take them to City star Omar Marmoush, who could serve as an alternative to Savinho, who Spurs have eyed for much of the summer. De Zerbi spoke to Football.London this week and said: "The transfer market, it's not finished for sure, but we completed 60 per cent of our project in the transfer market. Now we have another bomba!" That next signing doesn't appear to be Marmoush, but a player does seem to be incoming.
Meanwhile, asked about the potential of signing an attacker, De Zerbi added: "I hope, but it's not finished for sure."
The same story adds that De Zerbi is a 'big admirer' of Marmoush, who is a potential target, along with Savinho. Although it will almost certainly be one or the other, given Tottenham's big spending and the fact City are not going to sell both attackers, especially not to the same team.
Marmoush joined City in 2025 from Eintracht Frankfurt on a £59million deal, and he has since scored 10 times in 37 league appearances. Marmoush is more of a central striker than Savinho, but he can also operate comfortably out wide, and that versatility is something Spurs will like, given they could do with an attacker who can cover both the wide and central positions.
City would likely ask for big money to sell Marmoush, likely to want a profit on their investment in the 27-year-old. There is also the large matter of Marmoush's wage, which is reported to be £250,000-per-week as things stand, and that will have to be matched, or perhaps even increased.
Marmoush has 'something special'
Marmoush had a particularly big impact early on in his time at City, after arriving in the January window of 2025, and Erling Haaland said of the forward last year: "He has something special. He's going to be a fantastic player for us. It's about getting to know him as soon as possible, because there are so many important games coming."
