Tottenham Hotspur in talks with Manchester City over Savinho transfer
Tottenham Hotspur have held talks with Manchester City over an unexpected deal to sign winger Savinho. Dialogue has taken place between the clubs and a package worth in the region of €50million (£43.3m, $58.2m) is under discussion. City are not actively looking to sell Savinho but he open to the possibility and Pep Guardiola tends not to stand in the way of player who want to leave. Advertisement An agreement has not been reached but work continues as Spurs try to land the 21-year-old in a shock move. Savinho joined City from Girona last summer and the Brazil international is contracted to them until June 2028. The winger, who has scored one goal in 13 international appearances for Brazil, netted three times for Guardiola's side across 48 appearances in 2024-25. Having begun his career at Atletico Mineiro, he subsequently joined French club Troyes, part of the City Football Group (CFG). He was loaned to PSV Eindhoven, where he made eight appearances in 2022-23, before in 2023-24 making a loan move to CFG sister club Girona, whom he helped to a top-four finish in La Liga and a first-ever club qualification to the Champions League, with 11 goals that term. Savinho then made a permanent move to City, the flagship team of CFG, last summer. () Spot the pattern. Connect the terms Find the hidden link between sports terms Play today's puzzle

Liberty's Breanna Stewart reveals she'll return from injury by her birthday
Liberty's Breanna Stewart reveals she'll return from injury by her birthday originally appeared on The Sporting News Breanna Stewart has been out injured for a couple weeks. The New York Liberty star is trying to ramp things up in hopes of a return soon. But even as that happens, Liberty fans got a piece of solid news in Stewart's new comments. She told reporters what the must is in her comeback from injury: "I'm on the training staff to let me be back, to free me a little bit, but definitely before my birthday, that's a non-negotiable. I have to be back before my birthday." When is Stewart's birthday? August 27. So that's two weeks or so that Stewie has to return to the floor. Stewart has been out since late July with a right leg injury that she sustained on July 26. Before the injury, Stewie was putting up 18.3 points, 6.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game. She remains one of the best players on the planet. She'll turn 31 years old on her birthday, still near the peak of her powers. Stewart is one of the best winners in the history of sports, from Cicero-North Syracuse High School to the University of Connecticut and then on to the Seattle Storm and New York Liberty in the WNBA. She's also one of the best players in women's basketball history, a two-time WNBA MVP and one of the most skilled frontcourt players to ever step onto the hardwood. Stewart also helped the Liberty claim the championship last season, and they'll need her back to try and defend that crown. And it sounds like she'll be back very, very soon, in time for a little celebration. MORE: Indiana Fever's Lexie Hull reaches incredible career milestone after mom defends her
