Big-spending Tottenham sign winger Savinho from Manchester City

Tottenham Hotspur has made a significant investment in their squad during the recent transfer window, signing Brazilian winger Savinho from Manchester City. This move brings the club's total spending for the close season above £300 million, as they aim to rebuild the team following a disappointing 17th-place finish in the previous season.

The financial details of the deal, which reportedly includes potential add-ons, have not been officially disclosed by either club. Manager Roberto De Zerbi praised Savinho's energy, imagination, and quality in wide positions, expressing excitement about working with the 22-year-old. Savinho previously played for Atletico Mineiro, Troyes, and Girona, where he scored 11 goals in 41 appearances en route to a club-high third-place finish in La Liga in 2024.

He has also represented Brazil on 13 occasions. The arrival of Savinho follows the signings of midfielders Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes, as well as defenders Andy Robertson, Marcos Senesi, and Jan Paul van Hecke. Tottenham's transfer activity now totals £322 million, if the add-ons from Savinho's deal are included, as they strive to improve their Premier League performance.
