Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on a significant attacking addition as the club targets Manchester City winger Savinho this summer.
The Lilywhites have already revamped their defence and midfield during the ongoing transfer window, and Roberto De Zerbi is now turning attention to upgrading his forward options.
According to The Sun, Spurs are now in advanced talks with Manchester City as they look to complete a deal for the Brazilian winger, 12 months after first declaring their interest.
Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano has added that Savinho has informed Manchester City of his desire to leave the Etihad Stadium in search of regular first-team football elsewhere.
Spurs are believed to be in a strong position to land the 22-year-old, with personal terms not expected to present a major obstacle given the role De Zerbi could offer him.
Savinho is valued at £30 million on Transfermarkt, though City may demand a higher fee given that Tottenham would be a direct domestic rival purchasing one of their players.
A more definitive asking price for the young winger has not yet been determined, meaning the final transfer fee remains one of the key outstanding details to be resolved.
The signing would address a clear need in the Spurs squad, with Dejan Kulusevski having been absent for over a year through fitness problems and Wilson Odobert also carrying a troublesome injury record.
Savinho has demonstrated his quality during a limited run of appearances for Manchester City, handling the intensity, pace, and physicality of the Premier League with impressive composure for his age.
The Brazilian international possesses quick feet and uses his pace effectively to beat opponents, while his passing range and ability to create chances in the final third make him an exciting prospect.
He is also comfortable operating as an inverted winger, cutting inside from the right flank and threatening goal, a profile that suits the style of play De Zerbi typically demands from wide attackers.
With consistent minutes under De Zerbi, Savinho could develop into a genuine attacking threat for Spurs, combining his creative ability with an increased goal return as his Premier League experience grows.
