Arsenal have confirmed that Nuno Tavares has made his move to Lazio permanent.

The Portuguese defender, who spent last season on loan with the Serie A club, joins in a deal worth £6 million, with add-ons that could take it up to £7.5m.

Tavares made a real impact in Rome, playing as a wing-back and catching the eye enough to earn his first senior cap for Portugal, coming off the bench in a 5-1 win over Poland in the Nations League last November.

He was one of Lazio’s standout players last season, chipping in with nine assists in 30 games as they finished seventh in the league.

The 25-year-old signed for Arsenal from Benfica for £8 million back in July 2021. He made 28 appearances in his first season at the Emirates, scoring once.
