Tottenham again cast a dark cloud of `injury curse' following last season. James Maddison was ruled a de facto 'out' in the new season due to surgery from a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his right knee. Dominic Solanke injured his ankle, and Dejan Kulusevki is still recovering.

Savinho played in 29 games in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season, scoring one goal and eight assists. There were 21 starts. Compared to playing in 37 games in La Liga in the 2023-2024 season when he was on loan from Girona, his form was poor compared to scoring nine goals and 10 assists.
Savinho and Manchester City's contract period is until June 2029. He is likely to be the new season 'Backup'. If he moves to Tottenham, he can set up a new turning point. Savinho had a lot of affection for Manchester City, but he is said to be in a forward-looking position for a transfer.
