Tottenham Face Italian Competition for Manchester City Winger Savinho
Manchester City are keeping tight control of any sale and want either a replacement or improved terms before allowing the 22‑year‑old to leave.
Overview
- Reports on Friday show Tottenham remain the main suitor and have pressed a bid in the region of £60–65m for Savinho.
- AC Milan have surfaced as credible competition and are actively monitoring the situation with the option to intervene if City set terms they can meet.
- Savinho has formally told Manchester City he wants regular first‑team football and has indicated a desire to leave after limited opportunities last season.
- Manchester City are not prepared to approve a sale until they identify a replacement or secure a higher fee, which gives them decisive leverage over the transfer.
- A move would reshape Spurs’ attacking options under Roberto De Zerbi and force City to pursue a winger target; the next steps hinge on whether Spurs or Milan meet City’s conditions.
