BBC SportPublished Tottenham have agreed a loan deal to sign Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush, with an obligation to make the deal permanent for £60m next summer.
The Guardian SportMarmoush is to have a medical at Spurs, who have agreed to pay up to £10m in add-ons, with half of that guaranteed. Next summer the 27-year-old is to sign a four-year contract with a one-year option. City are not due to give a sell-on fee to Eintracht Frankfurt, from whom they bought the Egyptian in January 2025.

The winger is expected to slot into Spurs' attack as soon as he is ready, especially after an understaffed version of the team underwhelmed in a 3-0 defeat to Brentford to open their season. Mikey Moore, the 19-year-old academy product, played right wing on Saturday but is reportedly set to join Bundesliga side Koln in a season-long loan after spending the previous campaign on loan at Rangers.

The Guardian SportSpurs were the mark, and they could end up paying £85m if all the silverware-related add-ons kick in. So £75m it is, then. But that’s still a fair old whack for an attacking player who scored two goals for City in 53 league appearances. The 22-year-old Brazilian plays on the right flank, so will almost certainly take the place of Mikey Moore, who thought his day at Brentford last weekend had gone badly enough, only for his manager Roberto De Zerbi to go out of his way to namecheck him – and him alone, twice – in his post-match deconstruction of a 3-0 fiasco for which pretty much everyone wearing Tottenham’s traditional blue, gold and dayglo pink was culpable.

CBS SportsSavio, as Spurs referred to him in their announcement, who previously went by Savinho with City, had been a target of Spurs for a year before the deal finally went through and is expected to slot into the team's attack as soon as he is ready to play. Spurs reportedly paid a transfer fee of around $102 million for the winger's services, making him one of the most expensive signings in the club's history but on trend for their business this summer. Spurs have spent upwards of $400 million on transfers this summer in time for Roberto De Zerbi's first full season as the manager, each of the club's top three record signings coming this summer – the fee for Savio was only outdone in Spurs' deals for Sandro Tonali from Newcastle United and Mateus Fernandes from West Ham United.
BBC SportThe 27-year-old Egypt international follows Savio from City to Spurs after the north London club signed the Brazilian for an initial fee of £75m on Tuesday.

02 The Guardian Sport González is poised to become the fourth frontline central midfielder to depart City this summer, after Rodri, Bernardo Silva and Tijjani Reijnders. City have signed only Elliott Anderson, for £116m from Nottingham Forest, though they have agreed a €100m (£85.7m) deal for Lille’s Ayyoub Bouaddi, another midfielder, and a £34m fee for Palmeiras’s Allan Elias, who is Sávio’s replacement as a wide forward.

04 CBS Sports The move feels like a natural fit for all, even when considering the fact that Savio will be saddled with the pressures of the price tag. Spurs' overall ability to break back into the race to finish inside the UEFA Champions League berths after a few seasons away may still be up for debate, but Savio offers only upside for the team, with both sides poised to benefit from the move regardless of how it all shakes out.
