Manchester City have agreed new deals with several key figures, including Erling Haaland and Nico O'Reilly. 

There are several players whose futures remain unclear, but Pep Guardiola looks to be keen on cementing players who he believes will be crucial for winning trophies. 

A new report out of ESPN has claimed that one Man City star is expected to sign a new contract, despite links with a move away during the summer.

Savinho had been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur during the summer, until the London club pulled out due to differences in valuation of the attacker.

Guardiola has expressed his desire to keep the Brazilian, with the manager seeing Savinho as a key young player. 

The new deal will reflect Savinho's success during his first season at City, with the winger making 48 appearances in all competitions last season. 

Savinho made his first start of the season in the Carabao Cup against Huddersfield Town, where he scored in City's 2-0 win.
