Lazio have officially announced the signing of Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares on loan with an obligation to buy.
The Biancocelesti have been very active in July, as they have already acquired the services of Loum Tchaouna, Tijjani Noslin and Fisayu Dele-Bashiru. The club’s Sporting Director Angelo Fabiani was determined to add a new full-back to their ranks and eventually identified Tavares as his main target.
The Italian capital side have thus acquired the 24-year-old’s services on a temporary basis. However, Lazio will also have an obligation to buy that will be triggered upon the completion of certain sporting objectives as the club explained through a note published on its official website.
SS Lazio announces that it has acquired on a temporary basis, with an obligation to redeem upon the occurrence of particular sporting conditions, the rights to the sporting performances of the footballer Nuno Albertino Varela Tavares from Arsenal FC.
Tavares rose to prominence as an up-and-coming left-back during his time at Benfica, earning himself a prestigious move to Arsenal. However, the Portugal international struggled to carve himself space in North London so he spent the previous two campaigns on loan at Olympique Marseille and Nottingham Forest.
