Tottenham are gearing up to make a revised offer for Manchester City winger Savinho, who is keen on joining the North London club.
While Tottenham have made some significant additions to their squad in the ongoing transfer window, they are still looking for more quality on the flanks. The North London club are interested in acquiring the services of Savinho, who had an impressive debut campaign at Manchester City last time out.
Spurs did fail with an initial offer, but they haven’t given up just yet. According to Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham are willing to table an improved offer to sign the Brazilian winger, who seems to be a priority target for them.
Savinho made a name for himself while on loan at Girona. On the back of his impressive performances, City secured his services from Troyes last summer. In his debut campaign, he was involved in a total of 48 matches and finished with three goals and 13 assists.
While he was a rotational option for Guardiola, the 21-year-old did end up winning the trust of his manager with his impressive performances. His work hasn’t gone unnoticed, as quite a few clubs are keen on acquiring his services.
Tottenham to make another attempt
Tottenham are the most serious suitor for him at this point. The North London club see him as an ideal fit for the short as well as the long run. With Son Heung-min no longer at the club, Thomas Frank and the board are looking to bring in someone who can help them cope with his absence.
Since James Maddison is also nursing an injury, they certainly need more firepower. Spurs have already made an attempt to strike a deal with City. They made an initial offer around a week back, but it was turned down by the Manchester-based giants as they will only sell him on their terms.
Despite that blow, Spurs haven’t given up, and they are planning to make another attempt in the coming days. The player remains keen on making the switch to Tottenham, where he could have a much more prominent role. With Savinho ready to make the switch, Frank’s team do have a chance of securing his services before the end of the window.
While City have closed the door for a potential exit, they could change their stance if an improved offer arrives. They do rate Savinho quite highly, but could let him leave for the right price as it could help them land Rodrygo Goes.
