  "account": "LONDON, Aug 21 — Tottenham has reached an agreement to sign Manchester City winger Savinho, with an initial fee of approximately £75 million, according to reports on Friday. The 22-year-old Brazilian has been a long-term target for the north London club, who previously tried to sign him during the 2025-26 season. The Tottenham management is set to pay an additional £10 million in potential add-ons. The club is also interested in signing Savinho's City teammate Omar Marmoush, following the Egyptian forward's disappointing stint in Manchester.\n\nThis signing brings Tottenham's summer spending to more than £300 million, as the team aims to rebuild a squad that narrowly avoided relegation last season. With key players like James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons, and Wilson Odobert either recovering from injuries or still sidelined, Savinho is expected to make an immediate impact if the transfer is finalized in time for Saturday's Premier League opener against Brentford. At City, Savinho struggled to secure a regular starting position, netting seven goals and providing 16 assists in 84 appearances.",
