Newcastle United defender Tino Livramento could be open to a summer move, with reported interest from the Toons Rivals including Chelsea and Arsenal, according to transfer claims from The Telegraph and recent reports.
The versatile right-back has emerged as one of the Premier League’s most intriguing defensive prospects, and with one of the most valuable young English defenders approaching the final years of his contract, his future is firmly under the spotlight.
Livramento joined Newcastle in 2023 in a £40 million deal from Southampton, where he had previously developed as a promising academy graduate before injury setbacks. Since moving to St James’ Park, he has become an important part of Eddie Howe’s squad but has also drawn attention from some of English football’s biggest clubs.
Reports suggest he is not opposed to a summer departure if a top club makes a concrete offer, though he remains content and professional at Newcastle. With his current contract running until 2028 and without renewal, Newcastle’s negotiating position could become increasingly vulnerable, possibly prompting a sale to maximise his transfer value.
Among the names linked with Livramento are Premier League heavyweights Chelsea and, historically, ARSENAL. Chelsea were mentioned as potential suitors in the Teamtalk piece, while wider rumour mill coverage in recent transfer windows has linked Manchester City and Arsenal with interest as well — though those links have varied in strength through different reports.
Opinion: Where Should Livramento Go?
If Livramento does depart Newcastle this summer, the decision over his next club will be pivotal for his career trajectory. A move to Chelsea could offer Premier League visibility and a chance to cement himself as a key part of a rebuilding side under new leadership.
Stamford Bridge might suit him tactically, and the opportunity to return to one of his former clubs could have emotional appeal. However, Chelsea’s defensive options are volatile, and competition for places could be fierce.
ARSENAL have one of the best defences in Europe and Mikel Arteta knows that he needs to sign players that will immediately challenge the stars that he already has in the side.
Staying at Newcastle may yet be the most sensible option for consistent first-team football and personal development under Eddie Howe. Newcastle’s recent push for European football and their project in the Premier League can provide both stability and competitive matches.
If he leaves, Livramento must be guaranteed regular minutes — otherwise he risks stagnation. A move abroad might also suit his development, but for now a stay at Newcastle or a carefully selected move to a club where he plays week in, week out looks like the best path for long-term growth at this stage of his career.
