Tottenham pursues Savinho as Chelsea retains Josh Acheampong this summer
Summary

Tottenham Hotspur is advancing in its efforts to acquire 22-year-old Manchester City winger Savinho during this summer transfer window. Despite a challenging previous season where Savinho made only seven league starts, Tottenham remains optimistic about the move. Reports indicate the player is receptive to signing with Spurs. Meanwhile, Chelsea has reportedly declined several offers for 20-year-old defender Josh Acheampong, with new manager Xabi Alonso keen to keep the highly-rated youth player at Stamford Bridge. The club is open to selling others, such as Marc Cucurella and Enzo Fernandez, if the right deals arise.
