Tottenham have held fresh talks over a late move for Manchester City winger Savinho following Arsenal’s hijack of their pursuit of Eberechi Eze, GIVEMESPORT senior reporter Fabrizio Romano has revealed.

Manchester United are reportedly hoping that Hotspur will choose to re-enter the race to sign Alejandro Garnacho, in the hope that it will then force Chelsea's hand to seal a more expensive deal for the Argentine attacker.

Eberechi Eze is close to joining Tottenham after Arsenal backed out of the race. The England international is expected to start for Crystal Palace in the first leg of the UEFA Conference League play-off against Fredrikstad on Thursday before sealing a £60m move to Spurs.

Exactly three months ago, Tottenham Hotspur won their first piece of silverware in 17 years. Beating Manchester United in the Europa League final, securing qualification for this season’s Champions League in the process, was supposed to transform the mood around the club and, for a brief time, it did.

Hotspur are exploring a potential move for Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku as they seek to bolster their attacking options, sources reveal.

Tottenham have been ridiculed for their petulance after losing out to Arsenal for the signature of Eberechi Eze.
