Savinho scored his first goal of the season in the Carabao Cup this week.
Manchester City is close to finalizing a new contract with Savinho, according to sources close to the club.
The conversations between the Brazilian winger and the club are at an advanced stage.
Although the agreement is not yet closed, there is optimism on both sides that an agreement will be reached.
The new contract will offer Savinho an improvement in the conditions agreed upon when he arrived at the Etihad Stadium in 2024.
According to sources, the agreement will reflect his outstanding first season in England and his position as one of the key young players of the club.

Savinho already has a contract until 2029, and the new agreement would keep him at the club until 2031.
The 21-year-old player was the subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer.
Sources indicated that Savinho was willing to discuss a possible transfer before Spurs ultimately backed down due to City’s valuation.
Pep Guardiola made it clear during the transfer market that he wanted to keep the former Girona striker in his squad and expressed his wish that Savinho would stay “for many, many years”.
There was speculation that City could turn their attention to Real Madrid winger Rodrygo if Savinho left.
Savinho started for the first time this season against Huddersfield Town in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, scoring in City’s 2-0 victory.
Last season, he participated in 48 matches across all competitions, including 29 in the Premier League, where he scored three goals.
