Tottenham make surprise move for Savinho
According to reports in the UK media, Tottenham have made a surprise move for Manchester City winger, Savinho.
The 21-year-old only joined the Cityzens last summer, but after an up-and-down campaign, he could now be on the move to the capital after Spurs lodged a £43m bid for his services.
According to reliable transfer guru, David Ornstein, Man City aren't actively looking to sell the player, but Savinho is open to a move. The deal could be determined by whether the Brazilian pushes for a way out of Manchester City or not.
It's been a quiet transfer window for Tottenham so far, with Mohammed Kudus the only ‘new' major arrival at the club. The news that James Maddison will miss the majority of the upcoming season through injury has likely prompted the move for Savinho.
Jack Grealish set to swap Man City for Everton
After being left out of their Club World Cup squad earlier in the summer, the writing was on the wall for Jack Grealish's Man City career, and the club's record signing is now on the verge of a move to Everton.
According to reports, the Toffees have secured a deal with Man City, and the player has accepted it. Everton will have a buy option at the end of the one-year loan for £50m.
After signing for Man City in 2021 for £100m, Grealish went on to become an integral part of the club's treble campaign in 2022/23. Unfortunately for the player, he has since fallen out of favour with Pep Guardiola and a change was needed for all parties.
The move to Everton should help Grealish's World Cup aspirations, with a place in the Toffees' starting XI almost guaranteed.
Man City eye an instant Jack Grealish replacement
Manchester City are reportedly eyeing up a move for Real Madrid winger, Rodrygo, as Pep Guardiola looks to fill the potential gaps left behind by Grealish and Savinho.
As per journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Spaniard is a huge fan of the player and is keen to make the move happen. The player is thought to be open to a move too, but Real Madrid would demand a fee of around £86m to let him go.
🚨🔵 Manchester City are considering move for Rodrygo after imminent exits.

This potential deal could be a good fit for all parties – Real Madrid already have Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr, who both like to operate in the same areas as Rodrygo, while Man City need some magic on the wings and have done ever since Riyad Mahrez left the club.
Whilst still in its early stages, the move would be a signal of intent for Man City if they can pull it off, in addition to their existing summer signings.
