Overview
- Negotiations between Tottenham and Manchester City over Brazil winger Savinho are ongoing, with multiple outlets on July 18, 2026 reporting a prospective fee of around £60 million.
- Several reports say personal terms with Savinho are agreed or close, but Manchester City will only approve the sale once they secure a replacement player.
- Tottenham have targeted Savinho to boost their attack after heavy summer spending on midfielders and defenders that has reshaped the squad and reduced playing opportunities for some youngsters.
- Lucas Bergvall is expected to leave Spurs this window because of reduced game time, with Nottingham Forest having submitted a bid and Newcastle also in talks.
- The transfer is likely to follow conventional processes such as bank transfers, agent negotiations and FIFA registration, so timing will depend on City’s recruitment and standard legal and payment steps.
