Newcastle defender Tino Livramento could potentially be out the door this summer, with Manchester City lurking.
According to the Daily Mail, the 23-year-old has Man City interest, and a deal is a real possibility this summer.
Livramento and Newcastle have stumbled over contract talks over the past 18 months, with no real progress having been made.
The uncertainty over his future in Tyneside could leave the door open for City.
There were rumours that he could have moved to Pep Guardiola’s side last summer, but nothing came of it.
Livramento joined the Magpies in 2023 from Southampton. Since then, he’s formed an impressive partnership on the flank with Lewis Hall, and he is approaching 100 appearances in Black and White.
The 23-year-old has been out with a hamstring injury since the beginning of January; however, he could be in contention against the Cityzens this weekend in the FA Cup, with a host of important games after that
That could create another problem for Newcastle in the right back position as Kieran Trippier’s contract expires this summer, and it seems they are reluctant to renew it.
Newcastle’s position could be influenced by their final league standing. Missing out on European football could have huge implications for Eddie Howe’s plans and would impact what looks to be a busy transfer window for the club.
While speculation continues to surround several key members of Howe’s side, Livramento’s situation could make him a vulnerable asset if interest from top teams increases.
