Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing 23-year-old English international Valentino Livramento from Newcastle United.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Manchester City are preparing to offer €74 million for Valentino Livramento. It will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.
The 23-year-old has done quite well for Newcastle United, and he is certainly one of the best young full-backs in the country. The youngster has the quality to play for the biggest clubs in the world, and he could be an asset for Manchester City.
Manchester City need more quality and depth in the full-back areas. Signing the Newcastle United wide player would be a wise decision. The Englishman is well-settled in the Premier League, and he could make an immediate impact. It will be interesting to see if Newcastle are prepared to let him move on.
They are looking to build a team capable of fighting for trophies, and selling one of their key players would be a blow for them. Newcastle United are one of the wealthiest clubs in the country. They do not need to sell key players for money. They will not want to make it easy for Manchester City to sign the player. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Livramemto could be tempted
Meanwhile, the opportunity to join Manchester City will be quite exciting for the defender. The Citizens are one of the biggest clubs in the country, and they have been fighting for major trophies regularly. He will want to compete at the highest level with them.
The English international reached the EFL Cup final with Newcastle United last season, and he is competing in the UEFA Champions League with them. However, they are not quite at the level required to fight for league titles.
Livramento could be attracted to the idea of taking the next step in his career. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. €74 million is a lot of money for a full-back, and any club could be tempted to sell the player if that kind of money is presented. It remains to be seen whether Manchester City follow up on their interest with an official proposal in the coming months.
