"Tottenham Hotspur have not completely closed the book on Manchester City winger Savinho, despite dropping a big sum on another young attacker. Thomas Frank's side have already bolstered their attack this summer, with a big-money move for Mohammed Kudus agreed shortly after making Mathys Tel's loan from Bayern Munich permanent. However, following an ACL injury to James Maddison in pre-season, the north London side seemingly felt the need to strengthen further."
"But that isn't the case, according to TEAMtalk, who claim figures inside Spurs have kept in contact with City regarding Savinho, even after the Simons deal had been agreed. The Manchester club are adamant he's not for sale, but those on the Tottenham side believe the player is keen, despite there yet to be a breakthrough in talks."
