Manchester City winger Savinho is reportedly open to leaving the club this transfer window, with Tottenham Hotspur identified as a potential destination. The 22-year-old Brazilian international is understood to be keen on a move to London, and discussions regarding a transfer are now underway. City are aware of Tottenham's interest, according to reports.
Background to the Potential Transfer
Savinho joined Manchester City from sister club Troyes in July 2024 for a fee of £30.8m, having previously spent a season on loan at Girona. Tottenham had previously held talks to sign the player last summer, but City were not prepared to sell at that time. The attacker signed a contract extension in October, which now runs until 2031. Savinho featured regularly in his first season under Pep Guardiola, making 48 appearances and scoring three goals. However, his involvement was more limited in the most recent campaign, with 36 appearances across all competitions.

Squad Movements and Pre-Season
Despite his reported desire to leave, Savinho has been included in Manchester City's initial 28-man squad for their pre-season tour of Asia. Notably absent from this squad is Jack Grealish, who is recovering from a foot injury sustained in January. Grealish shared on social media that he is nearing a return to full training. England goalkeeper James Trafford is also not travelling with the squad as he is nearing a permanent move to Leeds United. Players who participated in later stages of international tournaments, such as Rodri, are also not on the tour.
