Arsenal Have Set Their Sights On This Newcastle United Full-Back: Good Option For Arteta? | OneFootball

In a recent report, Fichajes mentioned that Arsenal have set their sights on Newcastle United full-back Tino Livramento. It has been stated that the Gunners would have to compete with Manchester City in the race to land the English talent.

Livramento’s Crucial Role At Newcastle

Livramento has served as an important member of Newcastle’s squad this season as he has put in a few impressive displays for them in the Premier League. The English talent has failed to score but has secured one assist in 19 matches for the Magpies in this campaign so far across all fronts.

When fit, the 23-year-old is among the best full-backs in the Premier League. Thus, it is no surprise that the Gunners are hoping to get a deal done for the talented defender at the end of this campaign.

His current contract at St. James’ Park will run out in the summer of 2028, which could make it tough for Arsenal to sign him on the cheap later this year.

Will Livramento Be A Good Option For Arsenal?

Livramento is a solid tackler of the ball and can scan the danger well to secure the ball back for his team inside his half. He doesn’t mind putting his foot through the ball when required and is a decent passer of the ball.

The English sensation can create the odd chance for his teammates from the right flank. Livramento is primarily a right-back but can also serve as a left-back if asked to do so. He is already quite familiar with the Premier League and won’t take much time to adjust to life at Arsenal.

We can expect Livramento to bring more quality and depth to Mikel Arteta’s defence. He is more than capable of fighting for a regular first-team spot at the North London club in the coming years.

At 23, Livramento has his best years ahead of him, which makes him a decent option for the Gunners to consider at the end of this campaign. He might even help the Gunners challenge for some major honours in the future. Therefore, Arteta would be wise to step up his efforts to bring Livramento to the English capital in this summer transfer window.
