‘Final details’ – Fabrizio Romano confirms £70m attacker WILL sign for Tottenham

Tottenham Hotspur’s summer business is still moving. This update covers the picture as it stands on 20 September 2026. Roberto De Zerbi already spent £230m on six new recruits earlier in the window. Now attention has turned to two further additions who could shape the season ahead: Omar Marmoush and Savinho.

Tottenham transfer update for late summer window

It has been a busy window. Six players arrived for a combined £230m before this latest phase of business began. That outlay set the tone for an ambitious rebuild under De Zerbi, and it explains why supporters are watching every fresh development so closely.

The next chapter centres on two attacking additions. Fabrizio Romano has been tracking both deals closely, and his updates form the basis of the latest reporting on Marmoush and Savinho. Each move sits at a different stage of completion.

Fabrizio Romano confirms Omar Marmoush agreement

Romano has told his audience that Marmoush is set to end up at Tottenham. Speaking on his YouTube channel, he said: “Omar Marmoush, in my opinion, is going to be a Tottenham player.”

He also explained how close Tottenham are to finalising terms with Manchester City, the club selling Marmoush. Romano said: “The agreement with Manchester City is VERY CLOSE. It’s just some final details to clarify club to club, but the agreement is very, very close.”

On the financial side, TEAMtalk has reported that the transfer fee will be around £70m. That figure has not been confirmed elsewhere. Reports on the exact structure of the deal, including any loan element, have varied. Supporters should treat the £70m number as TEAMtalk’s reporting, not a settled fact, until the clubs confirm terms. For the background to how this deal developed, our earlier report on the Marmoush pursuit tracked the story from its early stages.

Savinho deal details and medical completed

Away from the Marmoush talks, Tottenham have also agreed a deal to sign Savinho from Manchester City. This move has progressed further. It sits at a more advanced stage than the ongoing back and forth over Marmoush.

Savinho has already undergone his medical ahead of completing the switch to north London. That step usually comes near the end of a transfer. It points to a deal that is close to being finalised.

Together, the Marmoush pursuit and the Savinho agreement show Tottenham are still active in the market even after their earlier £230m outlay. Both also reflect a continued willingness to do business directly with Manchester City this summer.

What happens next in De Zerbi’s squad rebuild

The question for supporters is simple. Will Marmoush and Savinho both be Tottenham players before the window shuts? Savinho’s move looks the more advanced of the two, with his medical already done. Marmoush’s deal is described by Romano as very close, though final details between the clubs still need clarifying.

What is confirmed: Romano expects Marmoush to play for Tottenham this season, and Savinho has agreed to join from Manchester City. What remains unconfirmed is the exact fee for Marmoush, since only TEAMtalk has put a figure of around £70m on the deal.

Beyond these two moves, there is nothing in the current reporting to suggest further attacking additions are planned. For now, De Zerbi’s rebuild is about getting both deals over the line. That would add two more forward options to a squad already reshaped by £230m of summer spending.
