Savinho transfer saga intensifies as Tottenham near deal and Arsenal bids loan

Tottenham Hotspur are close to completing the signing of Brazilian winger Savinho from Manchester City. The core fee has been agreed and only the structure of performance‑related add‑on clauses remains to be finalised, according to Spurs‑related sources. Manager Roberto De Zerbi has been credited with driving the move, which would be a key part of Tottenham’s summer rebuild.

Arsenal have tried to intervene by offering a loan deal for Savinho, but Manchester City have made clear they will only consider a permanent transfer, reportedly valued at around €50 million. Arsenal’s loan proposal was rejected, and the club’s interest remains focused on securing the player through a full purchase.
