Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly hoping to sign 21-year-old Brazilian international Savinho from Manchester City during the summer window.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Tottenham Hotspur are working to unlock the deal for Savinho. Manchester City paid €40 million to sign the Brazilian attacker last summer, and they will look to recoup a substantial amount of money from his departure.
Tottenham need more quality and depth in the wide areas, and the South American could prove to be a useful acquisition. He will add pace, flair, and unpredictability to the side. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham can convince Manchester City to accept a reasonable offer for him.
Spurs need to improve other areas of their squad as well, and they will not want to pay a premium for the Brazilian international. Savinho is not a regular starter for Manchester City, and he is not an indispensable asset for them either. No club will want to pay over the odds for him. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Spurs need quality additions
Tottenham need to improve their squad if they want to do well in the Premier League this season. The North Londoners will look for a place in the Champions League through league positions, and they will look to do well in the domestic competitions as well. They managed to win the UEFA Europa League last season, and they need to build on that.
Thomas Frank has a talented and quality manager. If they can sign a couple of quality players before the window closes, there is no reason why they cannot have another successful season. Meanwhile, Manchester City should look to cash in on the player and move to other targets. They will not be able to offer him regular game time, and it makes no sense for them to hold onto him.
The player will want to sort out his future quickly so that he can focus on his football once again. With the World Cup coming up next year, the 21-year-old will want to play regularly at a high level so that he can cement his place in the Brazilian national team. Tottenham will be able to provide him with the platform.
