Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly opened talks with Manchester City over a move for 21-year-old Brazilian winger Savinho. Spurs are looking to strengthen their attack after Son Heung-min’s move to LAFC and James Maddison’s long-term ACL injury which will keep him out for most of the season.

Dialogue has taken place between the clubs and a package worth in the region of €50million (£43.3m, $58.2m) is under discussion

And yet on the eve of the new Premier League season City are fielding interest from Tottenham in the 21-year-old with the Blues seeking a fee of more than £50million to consider selling a player they only signed a year ago.
