Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly in advanced talks to complete a stunning double swoop for Manchester City attackers Savinho and Omar Marmoush this summer.
Journalist Ben Jacobs, reporting for talkSPORT, has backed up claims from David Ornstein of The Athletic that negotiations are progressing rapidly between the two clubs.
The potential deal would represent a massive statement of intent from Spurs as Roberto De Zerbi continues his ambitious rebuild in North London.
Manchester City are believed to be seeking around £150 million combined for the attacking pair ahead of the summer transfer deadline.
The Etihad hierarchy are willing to sanction the departures of both players in order to generate significant capital and fund additions to their own midfield.
Jacobs confirmed on X that the talks between Spurs and City for both Savinho and Omar Marmoush are already at an advanced stage, consistent with what Ornstein had previously reported.
While a final agreement is yet to be sealed, discussions between the clubs are said to be progressing smoothly with real momentum behind the deal.
Tottenham’s pursuit of the Manchester City duo also runs alongside their continued interest in Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo, adding further ambition to De Zerbi’s rebuilding project.
Spurs have already opened discussions with Liverpool over the Dutch international, but any move for Gakpo remains dependent on the Reds completing their own attacking recruitment first.
Liverpool are currently prioritising moves for Bradley Barcola and Ibrahima Mbaye before they will consider sanctioning Gakpo’s departure to Tottenham.
Only if Liverpool successfully finalise those incoming additions will they green-light Gakpo’s exit, making the City double deal a more guaranteed route to elite frontline depth for Spurs.
De Zerbi has already overseen major signings this summer, including midfielder Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes, and defender Jan Paul van Hecke as part of his sweeping squad overhaul.
Adding Savinho and Omar Marmoush would push Tottenham’s summer expenditure toward a historic total, demonstrating the scale of backing the club are giving their new manager.
Landing all three targets would complete a remarkable transformation of Spurs’ attack, signalling clear intent that Tottenham are determined to compete at the very highest level next season.
