Manchester City are now leading the race to sign a "generational talent", having moved ahead of Premier League rivals Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle United.
Man City looking to improve attack amid Haaland overreliance
There have been suggestions that Man City have been too overreliant on Erling Haaland so far this season, with the Norwegian way out in front as the top goalscorer in the Premier League, having already found the back of the net 11 times.
No other City player has scored more than one goal in the top flight, which is likely to be a concern for Pep Guardiola, with some of his other attacking options still learning on the job and yet to realise their true potential.
One such player is Savinho, with Guardiola saying: "Savio is a top player who can play both sides and he feels comfortable on both sides. I said last season, being [in your] first Premier League season, it’s not easy to play a lot of minutes.
"Just the moment to make the steps to be a decisive player and add goals and assists, especially goals he will be a top-class player. Top class. He needs to make that step."

Jeremy Doku has also been inconsistent, registering two assists in the 3-0 victory over Man United but failing to make much of an impact in other matches, and the Blues are now looking to sign a new winger.
That is according to a report from The Boot Room, which states Man City have now moved into pole position in the race to sign Leicester City's Jeremy Monga, having overtaken Man United, Newcastle and Chelsea.
City are now preparing a fresh approach to sign Monga, who has been a long-term target, with the 16-year-old putting himself in the shop window after emerging as a first-team regular for Leicester this season.
The Foxes are powerless to stop the teenager from leaving, as he is unable to sign a professional deal until he turns 17 in June.
"Generational talent" Monga could be future star
Lauded as a "generational talent" by journalist Graeme Bailey in the aforementioned report, it is a testament to just how talented the youngster is that he has already forced his way into first-team contention at Leicester.
The starlet has already made 11 appearances in the Championship this season, picking up his first professional goal in a 2-1 defeat against Preston North End back in August.
Scout Jacek Kulig clearly believes the five-time England U19 international has a big future ahead too, describing him as "one of the most exciting U-17 talents in England."
Given his age, Monga may be some way off challenging for a starting spot at a club like Man City, but he certainly looks like a top prospect, so it is exciting news they have moved into pole position in the race for his signature.
