The 20-year-old is our first signing of the summer for the 2024/25 season as we aim to secure a record-breaking fifth Premier League title.
Savinho had an outstanding season on loan at Girona last year, contributing to the Spanish side’s historic qualification for the Champions League.
He netted 11 goals and provided 10 assists, helping the Catalonia club secure a third-place finish behind Real Madrid and Barcelona.
In March 2024, he received his first call-up to the international squad and made his debut at Wembley in a 1-0 win against England.
Savinho was among the Dorival Junior’s Copa America squad and scored his first goal for Brazil in a 4-1 victory over Paraguay.
Regarding the move, he stated: “I’m excited to join Manchester City, the Premier League champions and Club World Cup winners. It’s clear they are currently the best team in the world, so being here is incredibly exciting for me.”
I’m happy about the chance to work under Pep Guardiola, one of the greatest coaches ever, and someone I know will help me improve even more.
I had a beautiful experience in Spain, and now I’m eager to take on the challenge of playing in the Premier League and alongside some of the world’s top players.
Additionally, he stated, “I can’t wait to meet the fans and his new team-mates and hopefully be a part of bringing more success to City.”
