Spurs in talks to sign Man City's Savinho and Marmoush

Tottenham Hotspur are engaged in negotiations with Manchester City to sign forwards Savinho and Omar Marmoush, according to reports from BBC Sport. The talks are ongoing, though an official agreement has not been reached yet.

Sinho, a Brazilian winger, is Spurs' target. He joined City for £30 million in 2024 from Troyes, but has been limited to just seven Premier League starts this season. He was originally brought to the club in 2025, when he was 22 years old. Marmoush, on the other hand, is a £59 million signing from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2025. He has fallen out of favor under Pep Guardiola, and managed just eight goals in 36 appearances across all competitions last season.

City's valuation for the pair remains undisclosed, but they would expect to make a substantial profit on both if the deal goes through. Tottenham's head coach, Roberto de Zerbi, has revamped his midfield this summer by signing Mateus Fernandes from West Ham and Sandro Tonali from Newcastle for a combined £185 million. However, with Spurs finishing 17th in the Premier League last term, scoring just 48 goals in 38 games, he now emphasizes the need to strengthen the team's attack.

Tottenham is also interested in Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo, but the feasibility of securing a deal for him alongside Marmoush and Savinho is yet to be determined. City, meanwhile, have already offloaded several players this summer, including Rodri, Tijjani Reijnders, and second-choice goalkeeper James Trafford.

Tottenham's Premier League campaign begins away against Brentford on Saturday at 17:30 BST, while City host Bournemouth on Sunday at 14:00 BST.
