One fan said: “I honestly do not understand why Tottenham are going in for Savinho. He struggled to consistently deliver in a far better Manchester City team, so what exactly makes him the right fit for Spurs? The club should be looking at players like Iliman Ndiaye or Ismaila Sarr instead.”Another commented: “Yeah great. We are letting down another manager again. De Zerbi now has to play with bums.”A third stated he wanted Spurs to pay £40m or less: “£40m or less. Not too keen on the signing personally,” while another added: “After nearly getting relegated this is the attacking power we are adding, typical Spurs 😭”The worries kept flooding in with another supporter stating: “Good lord no. He was terrible this season. Cannot understand.”Another fan added: “I know he is not first choice for City but him having close to zero output with Haaland up top makes me quite worried ngl.

Savinho was out injured for most of the campaign, missing 11 games in the league due to injury, which affected his rhythm and prevented him from having a consistent run in the City squad.In the 2024-25 season, Savinho had much better output, managing 11 assists, although his goal scoring was still rather low, with one in 29 matches. Going back two seasons, we see his best return, with the Brazil winger registering 19 goal contributions in 37 games for Girona.SeasonGoalsAssistsMinutes played2023-24 (Girona)9102,9932024-25 (Manchester City)1101,7722025-26 (Manchester City)12821Tottenham will now be hoping that, should they secure the signature of Savinho, he rediscovers his form when he was at Girona.READ MORE: Why Tottenham haven’t announced Andy Robertson or Marcos Senesi yetThe post ‘£40m or less’ – Tottenham fans voice multiple concerns about Savinho transfer appeared first on Spurs Web.
