Tottenham held further talks with Manchester City on Saturday over a proposed deal for winger Savinho.
Last week Daily Mail Sport revealed that the Brazilian's agent had jetted in from South America with a view to getting a deal over the line.
Savinho is thought to be keen to organise a move that facilitates his desire to become a regular first-team starter in the Premier League ahead of next year's World Cup.
Spurs had switched their primary focus to No 10 target Eberechi Eze in recent days, and believed they were on the brink of securing the services of the Crystal Palace star.
