Tottenham buy Sávio from Man City in deal worth up to £85m
What's new: The Brazil winger takes No. 17, and reports put the guaranteed fee at £75 million with add-ons tied to success.
Tottenham Hotspur signed Brazil winger Sávio from Manchester City on Tuesday, adding another major piece to Roberto De Zerbi’s summer rebuild. Spurs did not disclose the contract length or transfer fee, but multiple reports put the deal at £75 million, potentially rising to £85 million through add-ons. The 22-year-old will wear the No. 17 shirt in north London. Sávio made 84 appearances for City after arriving from Troyes and scored seven goals, but his playing time dropped sharply last season. He previously impressed on loan at Girona, where his breakout campaign established him as one of Europe’s most dynamic wide attackers.
