Manchester City extended Savinho's contract through 2031 on Friday with an additional one-year option. The 21-year-old Brazilian winger attracted interest from Tottenham, but the club balked at City's reported 70 million pound valuation. Savinho contributed three goals and 13 assists across 48 appearances last season after joining from Girona for 31 million pounds.
The player earned his European breakthrough at Girona, a City Football Group affiliate, and helped secure Champions League qualification at the conclusion of the 2023-24 campaign. Director of football Hugo Viana praised Savinho's potential despite his youth and limited starting opportunities under manager Pep Guardiola. The Brazil international has earned 13 caps for his country and expressed eagerness to continue developing his skills at the Etihad Stadium.
