Tottenham Hotspur have significantly increased their summer spending, taking their outlay past the £300m mark with the signing of winger Savinho from Manchester City. The Brazilian transfer, valued at £100m, is the fourth high-profile purchase for the club since the end of last season, joining Sandro Tonali (£85m), Mateus Fernandes (£85m) and Jan Paul van Hecke.
Alongside Savinho, Tottenham has also signed Marcos Senesi, Andy Robertson and Martin Dubravka on free transfers, and are expected to complete the deal for Omar Marmoush before the deadline. The team's recent financial commitment follows a period of navigating the Premier League relegation zone in the past two seasons. The club's investment in high-profile signings, including Roberto de Zerbi, who became one of the highest-paid managers in football, aims to propel Tottenham towards a more successful future.
The 22-year-old Savinho expressed his excitement about joining the club, crediting manager De Zerbi for his decision to move to north London. Despite the club's substantial investment, Tottenham began the new season with a disappointing 3-0 loss against Brentford.
