Tottenham Hotspur are holding talks with Manchester City over the potential signings of Brazilian winger Savinho and Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush. The move would see Spurs significantly strengthen their attacking options by acquiring two players who have struggled for regular minutes at the Etihad. Savinho joined Manchester City from Troyes in 2024, while Marmoush arrived from Eintracht Frankfurt in January 2025. If completed, the double deal would represent a major statement of intent from Spurs ahead of the new season, while freeing up squad space and recouping funds for Manchester City.

Spurs appear to be taking an aggressive approach to the window, targeting two Premier League-proven attackers who have found game time hard to come by under Pep Guardiola. For Tottenham, adding pace and creativity on the flanks alongside a proven goalscorer would reshape their attacking identity, particularly in transition and wide areas. From City's perspective, moving both players would slim down a crowded squad and recoup significant transfer fees, while clearing room for incoming targets. The talks suggest a pragmatic alignment between two clubs with very different squad needs right now.
