WHAT HAPPENED?
Fabrizio Romano reports Spurs will increase their offer for Savinho after the weekend, with City blocking every approach over the past 10 days. Pep Guardiola confirmed the 21-year-old will not feature against Tottenham due to minor fitness issues. However, Spurs manager Thomas Frank remains eager to bolster his attack after injuries to James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Tottenham’s pursuit of Savinho comes after losing out to Arsenal for Eze, who will join the Gunners in a £67.5m deal. The Brazilian winger is seen as a priority target due to his pace and creativity, making him an ideal fit for Frank’s system. However, City are reluctant to sell a player they consider key for the future.

Savinho, 21, joined City in 2024 from Troyes after his breakout season on loan with Girona, where he impressed with his attacking displays. His performances have made him one of Europe’s most sought-after young wingers. Spurs believe his addition could transform their frontline as they look to compete for a Champions League spot.
