Tottenham Hotspur confident after Manchester City talks
Tottenham Hotspur aims to make a significant signing before the transfer window closes. Fresh talks with Manchester City have boosted their confidence in landing Savinho. The North London club took the opportunity to discuss the deal further following their 2-0 victory at the Etihad Stadium.
With only one week left in the transfer window, both clubs need to expedite negotiations. Fabrizio Romano has indicated that Tottenham is willing to offer in excess of 70 million Euros for Savinho. TBR Football reported that Pep Guardiola was initially reluctant to sell Savinho. However, their stance seems to have softened recently.
Pep Guardiola eyes Real Madrid winger Rodrygo Goes as replacement
Manchester City is now open to selling the 21-year-old winger if they can secure a replacement. Romano stated that Tottenham has informed Manchester City of their readiness to exceed 70 million Euros. The deal now depends on Manchester City’s ability to find a suitable replacement. Pep Guardiola’s preferred choice is Rodrygo from Real Madrid.
However, a deal for Rodrygo is complicated. Real Madrid values him at a minimum of 100 million Euros. Furthermore, Rodrygo’s contract involves a substantial salary, significantly higher than Savinho’s. Finally, Rodrygo has a strong affinity for Real Madrid. Despite these obstacles, Tottenham is expected to continue pushing for Savinho.
Manchester City fans react to Savinho transfer news
Manchester City fans have observed a shift in the Savinho deal following Romano’s update. Fans believe the club is now open to accepting Tottenham’s offer. However, this is contingent on signing Rodrygo, which could prove challenging. Following Romano’s update, City fans shared their opinions on X regarding the Savinho deal.
One fan noted that Manchester City seems satisfied with Tottenham’s proposed fee. Another fan suggested that Manchester City might be considering alternatives to Rodrygo. Several fans highlighted that Manchester City’s willingness to accept Tottenham’s bid marks a change in the situation. The next 48 hours will be crucial in determining whether Pep Guardiola’s team can acquire Rodrygo and proceed with Savinho’s sale to Spurs.
The potential transfer of Savinho to Tottenham Hotspur highlights the intricate dance between clubs in the Premier League. With significant funds on the table and a replacement target in sight, Manchester City holds the cards. Whether they can secure their desired player from Real Madrid will ultimately dictate Savinho’s next move.
