Possible Savinho Departure from Man City…

Monday kicked off with a plot twist of soap opera proportions as Tottenham approached Manchester City about signing Savinho. It’s like asking for a slice of cake just after you’ve been served dinner! The Brazilian winger, considered a future star at City, suddenly found himself at the center of the rumor mill. If Savinho takes the road to Tottenham, City is already eyeing talents like Xavi Simons and Rodrygo as replacements. Signing Rodrygo might save the team from facing his magical feet in the Champions League, where he’s been a bigger nuisance than a fly at a barbecue.

Rodrygo’s current scene is like a poorly cast movie at Real Madrid. After the glittering arrival of Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo found himself sidelined like a wallflower at the end of prom night. Yet if City thinks of welcoming Rodrygo, they’ll still have a jigsaw puzzle with one too many pieces. UEFA’s rule of only 17 non-homegrown players means another non-homegrown City player would need to pack bags faster than a magician pulls a rabbit from a hat. So, if no replacement arrives, City can breathe, but bringing Rodrygo would have Pep scratching his head on who to bench next.
