Former PSG star Jerome Rothen has blasted Manchester City over their interests in France.
City own local club Troyes and plan to sign Savio, who is currently on-loan with Girona.
Rothen barked: "I just want to say to the City group: 'Get out, French football doesn't need you.' I'm not ashamed to say, we don't need them.
"It p***es me off. Everything is summarized through Savinho. They are using this club as a springboard for certain players. He is a quality player who could have contributed things at Troyes.
"Since they've been here, it's been a disaster. They sold us a club that must win and is last in Ligue 1, and when they arrive they were last in Ligue 2. There is no stability there.
"With Savio we have passed a milestone, we must denounce it. And if the protests are not enough, don't come to the stadium anymore, leave them in their s***, make them understand that after a while they will have to leave."
