Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly putting Manchester City to the sword with a 5-0 lead, a scoreline that would rank among the most lopsided results in the history of this fixture. Ben Davies, a defender not exactly known for his goal-scoring exploits, got on the scoresheet, while Savio, the Brazilian winger who just joined Spurs from City, contributed against his former employers almost immediately.

A Savinho shot deflected into the net, and Davies followed up within three minutes, giving Tottenham a goal and an assist in a blink.

Savio turns on his old club

Tottenham completed a deal for the Brazilian winger on August 25, 2026, paying an initial fee of £75 million that could rise to £85 million with add-ons. During his time at City, Savio, who went by Savinho, racked up 84 appearances. He contributed seven goals and 16 assists across his tenure.
