Tottenham Hotspur in talks for Manchester City duo Savinho and Omar Marmoush

Manchester City are close to agreeing the transfer of Savinho to Tottenham for £85m, with a separate deal of around £75m for the arrival of Omar Marmoush from the FA Cup-winners to the north London club also being worked on.

Savinho signed for the City Football Group in summer 2022 for 40m euros (£30.8m), first joining Troyes, so the prospective sale of the 22-year-old for £85m represents a near £55m profit for City’s owners. After loans at PSV and Girona, the Brazilian joined City two years ago but the winger failed to establish himself as a first-choice under Pep Guardiola, the former manager.

Marmoush was bought in January 2025 for around £59m but, as with Savinho, the Egyptian forward was not a regular starter under Guardiola, due to having to compete with Erling Haaland.

If Spurs do buy both Savinho and Marmoush, that would take the club’s investment in Roberto De Zerbi’s squad this summer to £387m, after the purchases of Sandro Tonali for £100m, Mateus Fernandes (£85m), and Jan Paul van Hencke (£52m).
