Tottenham Step Up January Move for Man City Winger Savinho as Loan-to-Buy Path Emerges

Sources say his limited minutes have opened a window Spurs believe they can exploit this month.

Overview

  • Tottenham have revived Savinho as a priority target for this window, with reporting that the club is prepared to support Thomas Frank’s push for attacking reinforcements.
  • Industry sources claim the Antoine Semenyo deal is close, and suggest a Manchester City winger could leave as a consequence, with Savinho among the possibilities.
  • Spurs are expected to propose an initial loan for Savinho that includes either an option or an obligation to buy if City agree to a mid-season exit.
  • Savinho has featured largely as a substitute under Pep Guardiola this season, strengthening the sense that a temporary move could be feasible.
  • Alternative options under consideration include Yan Diomande, Kenan Yildiz and Maghnes Akliouche, while interest in Porto striker Samu Aghehowa is viewed as difficult to advance in January.
