The Times reported that after Eze lost to Arsenal, Tottenham has accelerated its bid for an attacking midfielder.
Their shortlist includes Monaco's Akliushe and Como's Nico Pas, Manchester City's Savignho remains the target, and the club is considering signing the winger in addition to introducing the No. 10 player. Although Manchester City's price of Savignho for £67 million has deterred Tottenham, the two sides may speed up negotiations after the weekend's clash.
21-year-old Savignho, who joined Manchester City from sister club Troyes last summer for £30.8 million, is open to conversations with Tottenham. Manchester City coach Guardiola hopes to keep people, but said that any player can leave the team as long as the price is right.
Tottenham urgently need two attacking midfielders, James Madison will miss most of the season due to a serious knee injury, Son Heung-min transfers to Los Angeles FC, and the deal to sign Nottingham Forest Morgan Gibbs White has also failed.
Como is unwilling to sell the 20-year-old Pas. The player contributed 6 goals and 8 assists last 35 games in Serie A and ranked fourth in the key pass list. The current coach is former Spanish midfielder Fabregas, who has made three appearances after completing his Argentina national team debut in October last year.
When his old boss Real Madrid sold him for 6 million euros last year, he set up a number of repurchase terms and matching quotation rights. Real Madrid abandons the 8 million euro repurchase option this summer, but can buy back 9 million next summer and 10 million euros the year after. If Como sells him to other teams this summer, he will have to pay Real Madrid a 50% resale share.
23-year-old Akliusch scored in Monaco's 3-1 victory over Le Havre last weekend, contributing 5 goals and 10 assists in the league last season, and 2 goals and 2 assists in the Champions League. Inter Milan had asked for a price of £60 million.
Other attackers on the market are difficult to trade. Rodrigo, 24, may leave the team if he is not on the Real Madrid roster, but the Brazilian winger has many suitors and may join the competition if Manchester City sells Savigno.
Tottenham also favors 23-year-old Morgan Rodgers, but even if Villa is willing to sell, the attacking midfielder will be priced at about £80 million. Southampton insisted on asking for at least £50 million for 19-year-old winger Dibring, after rejecting Everton's offer of about £37 million.
