London's Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City have reached a provisional agreement on the transfer of 22-year-old Brazilian left winger Savinho. This is reported by Sport RBC.UA, citing Globo Esporte. According to the source, the player is expected to fly to London soon for a medical examination, after which the official contract signing will take place. Thus, the deal is in its final stages but has not yet been legally completed.

Deal Essence and Financial Terms

According to Globo Esporte, the total transfer fee will amount to €93.5 million in guaranteed payments plus €5.7 million in bonuses, totaling over €99 million. This structure—a fixed base with additional incentive payments—is typical for top transfers in the English Premier League. For Tottenham, this is one of the largest investments in strengthening the attacking line during the summer market.

A Record for Manchester City

Savinho's move will become the record sale in the entire history of Manchester City. Until now, the most expensive departure from the club was the transfer of Argentine forward Julián Álvarez to Atlético Madrid, which took place in August 2024 for €75 million. Thus, the 'Citizens' have updated their own record for the sale of a player, highlighting the Brazilian's status as one of the club's key assets in the transfer market.

Double Transfer: Marmoush Included

Parallel to the Savinho operation, Tottenham is in advanced stages of negotiations for the transfer of Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush. According to available data, the total package for the double transfer of two players is estimated at approximately €151 million. Such a combination of two purchases from one club indicates a targeted strategy by the Londoners to strengthen their attack with players already adapted to the Premier League level and City's system.

Winger's History and Statistics

Savinho joined the 'Citizens' in July 2024 from French club Troyes, signing a contract until 2031. Last season, the winger scored four goals and provided two assists in 36 matches across all competitions for the club. Despite relatively modest figures by top-club standards, his speed and role in the attacking system made him an attractive candidate for Tottenham, looking to strengthen the left flank.

Contradictory Data

There are minor discrepancies in the wording of sums and currencies in open sources. While Sport RBC.UA and several other publications operate with an estimate in euros (over €99 million for Savinho and around €151 million for the double package), the ua-football.com publication characterizes one of the players in the double transfer as potentially costing 'more than £80 million'. The difference in currency (euros vs. British pounds) and the precision of figures is explained by both exchange rate differences and the fact that part of the sums is bonus-based and depends on contract conditions. Moreover, all sources only agree on the 'provisional agreement' between the parties: the official signing and medical results have not yet been confirmed at the time of publication, so the final sum may be subject to slight adjustments.
