Nuno Tavares on FC Porto's radar: Farioli wants a major left-back 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 situation that could develop over the coming weeks. In Italy, it is being suggested that the Portugal 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 said to be asking for around €20 million.

Having come through Benfica’s academy, Nuno Tavares could therefore return to Portuguese football, although international competition remains active. Besiktas have been following the player since the last winter transfer window, while Fiorentina are also believed to have made a preliminary approach regarding the defender’s situation.

For now, there are no signs of a deal being finalized, with the matter still at the stage of interest and assessment. FC Porto are therefore continuing to monitor a market opportunity to strengthen the left flank with an experienced player, familiar with Portuguese football and with recent experience in Serie A.
