Tottenham Hotspur have completed the signing of Brazilian winger Savinho from Manchester City for a reported initial fee of £75 million ($102 million), further underlining the club’s aggressive approach in the transfer market.
The deal, completed on Tuesday, is expected to see Tottenham’s total spending during the current transfer window surpass £300 million.
Savinho, who has emerged as one of Brazil’s promising attacking talents, joins Spurs as the latest major addition to a squad undergoing significant strengthening ahead of the new season.
The 22-year-old winger is known for his pace, dribbling ability and creativity, qualities Tottenham will hope can add greater attacking threat and depth to their squad.
The move also represents a significant investment by Tottenham, with the reported £75 million initial fee making Savinho one of the club’s most expensive acquisitions.
With the transfer taking their spending beyond the £300 million mark, Tottenham have emerged as one of the Premier League’s biggest spenders this summer as they look to build a squad capable of competing at the highest level.
