Tottenham target Savinho absent from Manchester City squad, but Marmoush included against Bournemouth

Savinho has been left out of Manchester City’s squad to face Bournemouth as he closes in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur. 

Omar Marmoush has also been linked with a transfer to Spurs, but he has been named among the substitutes for their opening game of the season. 

Tottenham have agreed an £85 million deal to sign Savinho. The 22-year-old was also not part of City’s squad that lost 3-0 to Arsenal in the Community Shield last weekend. 

Savinho joined the Manchester giants in 2024 from Troyes following a standout loan campaign at Girona. 

Despite his promise, he has failed to establish himself as a regular for City. He started only seven matches in the Premier League last season.

Marmoush has been named as a substitute against Bournemouth, although negotiations with Tottenham over a move have reportedly reached an advanced stage. 

The Egyptian has struggled for first-team opportunities since he arrived from Eintracht Frankfurt in January last year. 

Playing as a back-up to star striker Erling Braut Haaland, he made only eight top-flight starts in 2025-26. 

Marmoush is keen to join Spurs, where he can hope to earn more first-team opportunities.
