Manchester City winger Savinho has fuelled fresh speculation over a possible move to Tottenham Hotspur after social media activity involving Spurs midfielder James Maddison caught the attention of fans.
The Brazilian attacker has been repeatedly linked with a switch to north London in recent months, and reports suggest Tottenham remain confident of securing his signature before the transfer window closes.
The latest twist emerged when Savinho appeared to like an Instagram post from Maddison showcasing Tottenham’s new kit. Although the like was later removed, supporters were quick to notice the interaction, sparking further discussion about the winger’s future.
While the social media activity could prove insignificant, it has added to growing speculation that Savinho is interested in joining Spurs.
Tottenham’s admiration for the Manchester City star is not new.
The club attempted to sign the winger during the January transfer window and have continued monitoring his situation ever since. Sources indicate Savinho was open to the move earlier in the year and remains interested in making the switch to Tottenham.
The arrival of Roberto De Zerbi as Tottenham manager is believed to have strengthened the club’s appeal. The Italian coach has already played a significant role in attracting transfer targets, with several players reportedly eager to work under him as Spurs begin a new era.
Savinho is understood to be one of Tottenham’s priority attacking targets this summer.
The 21-year-old has built a reputation as one of the most exciting young wingers in Europe thanks to his pace, dribbling ability and creativity in the final third. His style of play is seen as a natural fit for De Zerbi’s attacking philosophy.
Reports suggest a fee in the region of £50 million could be enough to convince Manchester City to part ways with the Brazilian.
If a deal is completed, Savinho would become another major addition to Tottenham’s summer rebuild. The North London club have already strengthened several areas of the squad and remain determined to add further attacking quality ahead of the new campaign.
Despite the growing rumours, neither club has publicly commented on the speculation, and no official agreement has been announced.
However, with Savinho continuing to be linked with Spurs and his social media activity attracting attention, the possibility of a transfer is likely to remain a major talking point in the weeks ahead.
For now, Tottenham supporters will be watching closely to see whether a simple Instagram like was merely accidental — or an early hint of a move to come.
