Tottenham's summer transfer market is shaking. The recruitment of Savinho (Man City), who was expected to be a substitute for Son Heung-min, is on the verge of collapse.
British media The Bootroom said on the 16th (Korea time) 'Tottenham is looking for a new striker ahead of the 2025-2026 season. Tottenham's Son Heung-min left for LA FC (USA). As a result, the offensive terrain is being transformed. Mohamed Kudus has been recruited, but he will be out of the market to secure other offensive capabilities. Tottenham want Savinho to leave Manchester City, reports say.
Tottenham will play Burnley at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 16th in the opening match of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2025-2026 season. It's the beginning of a new era. Tottenham had a big change ahead of the new season. He has broken up with coach Enze Postecoglou, who has led the team so far. Director Thomas Frank has taken the helm. Son Heung-min, who has been at the center of the team for the past 10 years, also left.
Tottenham looked for a player to take over Son Heung-min's '7' As a result, Savinho was caught on Tottenham's radar network. Savinho, who was born in 2004, joined Manchester City in July last year after signing PSV Eindhoven (the Netherlands) and Girona (Spain). His transfer fee was £30.8 million. Savinho scored one goal and eight assists in 29 EPL games in the 2024-2025 season. There were 21 starts. It is a regrettable figure compared to the fact that he scored nine goals and 10 assists in 37 games in Spain's Primera Liga in the 2023-2024 season when he was on loan from Girona. Savinho is likely to play as Manchester City's 'backup' this season as well. If he moves to Tottenham, he can set up a new turning point. Savinho is also said to be in a forward-looking position on the transfer.

Ahead of the EPL opening match against Wolverhampton on the 17th, Guardiola said, `Whether it is Tottenham or another team, if a player wants to transfer, he should contact the team"I'm worried that Savinho will be on our team for a long time. He is a player with potential. I need to improve more, but he's a really good player. Players' aspirations are more important than anything else, but in the end, they have to find an agreement with the club. If no agreement is reached, the player will remain on the team. If they want to leave, they will come to me."
The outlet added that it could be a favorable condition for Tottenham to convince Savinho that he could play a key role in the EPL and the European Champions League (UCL).
