"If he's not playing regularly between now and January, then maybe that might open the door for Tottenham to rekindle their interest in Savinho. He'll be thinking he needs to be playing potentially ahead of a World Cup year with Brazil. City don't really want to lose him. I'm sure they'll want to keep him at least until the end of the season because City are going to need Savinho between now and then and challenge for honours on all fronts as well."
"The Brazilian is not a key player for Manchester City, and it will be interesting to see if he decides to move on in January. He could be a very useful acquisition for Tottenham. Savinho wants to be a part of the Brazilian national team for the upcoming World Cup, and he needs to play regularly at the club level. Tottenham will be able to provide him with that opportunity during the second half of the season."
Tottenham are monitoring Manchester City winger Savinho and could revive interest in January if he does not play regularly. The 21-year-old has struggled for consistent game time at City and needs minutes to enhance his chances of making Brazil's World Cup squad. Manchester City prefer to retain him through the season to help challenge on multiple fronts, but may need to offer more opportunities. Tottenham see Savinho as a potentially useful, affordable acquisition who can develop further and provide regular playing time in the second half of the season. A January move depends on City’s assurances and the player’s desire to play.
