Nuno Tavares on FC Porto's radar: Farioli wants a major left-sided signing | OneFootball

Nuno Tavares is being mentioned as a possible signing for FC Porto in this summer transfer window.

The 26-year-old Portuguese left-back belongs to Lazio and is also on the radar of Besiktas and Fiorentina, in a process that could develop over the coming weeks. In Italy, it is believed that the Portuguese international may be willing to change clubs after two seasons with the Rome-based side.

In FC Porto’s case, Nuno Tavares’ name is linked to the interest of Francesco Farioli, the current head coach of FC Porto’s first football team. Any potential deal, however, does not appear straightforward, as Lazio are reportedly asking for around 20 million euros.

Developed at Benfica, Nuno Tavares could therefore return to Portuguese football, although international competition remains active. Besiktas have been tracking the player since the last winter transfer window, while Fiorentina are also said to have made a preliminary approach regarding the defender’s situation.

For now, there are no signs of a completed agreement, with the matter still in a phase of interest and assessment. FC Porto therefore remain alert to a market opportunity to strengthen the left flank with an experienced player, familiar with Portuguese football and with recent experience in Serie A.
