Jamie O'Hara backs Tottenham Hotspur's signing of Saviinho from Manchester City but has urged the club to add more firepower before the window closes.
Tottenham have finally signed long-term target Savio, formerly known as Savinho at City, after failing to sign the Brazil international last summer. He will wear the No 17 shirt at the club.
Savio's arrival takes Spurs' spending this summer past the £300m barrier.
Meanwhile, his sale is a club record for Man City, surpassing Julian Alvarez's £82m move to Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2024.

Speaking in a statement released by the club, Savio said: "It's taken a while but I'm very happy to be here.
"It's a wonderful opportunity at a brilliant club with one of the best managers in the world.
"As soon as I spoke to the head coach I knew I had to come. He told me he wants to help me reach the highest level, and I believe we can do that together, as a team."
Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi added: "Savio is a player who brings energy, imagination and quality in wide positions. He has the courage to attack defenders and the ability to change a game with his creativity.
"We're very pleased to have him with us, and I'm looking forward to working with him, helping him continue to grow and seeing him bring his personality to the team."
