Tottenham Hotspur’s reported interest in Savinho has now taken a twist, with fresh information now emerging about where Spurs stand in their pursuit of the Manchester City winger.Tottenham Hotspur fans will surely want to see their club show some ambition in the transfer market after the disastrous campaign the Lilywhites endured last season, finishing 17th and just two points above the relegation zone.The club itself acknowledged the need for greater first-team investment and promised to address that in the transfer market as Tottenham look to get back to competing with the very best.Thus far, despite the summer transfer window yet to open, reports suggest the club may now be backing up those words with action.Spurs Web has reported over the last few weeks on Spurs’ interest in signing Manchester City winger Savinho after their failed attempts to land him last summer.Photo by Darren Staples / AFP via Getty ImagesTottenham yet to make Savinho approach despite transfer talk rumoursReports from a few days ago stated that Tottenham were making good progress in their pursuit of Savinho and that a deal was on the cards.This came after it was revealed that Savinho himself is open to a move to Spurs and that both Manchester City and Tottenham were in talks.According to Sky Sports reporter Lyall Thomas, it is now understood that Spurs are yet to make a direct approach to Manchester City regarding a deal for the 22-year-old winger. It is further explained that no bid has been submitted, with Tottenham still considering whether to make one.#Tottenham are considering a bid for Savinho at #ManchesterCity. No direct approach yet but sources expect one. They are also in talks with #Brighton for Jan Paul Van Hecke, as per elsewhere.

The Manchester City wide man could cost Spurs £60m or less should he make the switch from Manchester to north London.PlayerAppearancesGoalsAssistsGoal contributionsHarry Wilson3610717Anan Khalaili527512Savinho36437Wilson, Khalaili and Savinho’s goals and assists comparedSpending that amount on a player with just two Premier League goals to his name may be difficult to justify, particularly as some Tottenham supporters are not convinced by the prospect of Savinho moving to north London based on his end product. However, when comparing Savinho’s 2024-25 campaign with Mohammed Kudus‘ 2025-26 season, the underlying data paints a more encouraging picture.One thing is clear: Savinho is an extremely creative wide forward, with much of that creativity stemming from his ball-carrying, dribbling, passing and crossing ability. In fact, he outperformed Kudus in progressive carries, dribbles completed and key passes when comparing their respective seasons.PercentileProgressive carriesDribbles completedNPGnpxG + xAAssistsKey passesCrosses completedMinutesSavinho (Manchester City, 2024-25)98.295.99.588.089.382.887.31,912Mohammed Kudus (Tottenham Hotspur, 2025-26)78.688.830.453.091.280.896.21,658The table highlights why Tottenham may still view Savinho as a worthwhile target despite concerns over his goal output. While Kudus holds the edge in non-penalty goals and crossing, Savinho’s elite progressive carrying, dribbling and chance-creation metrics underline the qualities that have made him such an attractive option for Spurs.READ MORE: Tottenham bid for Jan Paul van Hecke tells us a lot about Cristian Romero price tagThe post Savinho to Tottenham update: Spurs consider bid for Savinho but yet to make a direct approach appeared first on Spurs Web.
