Nuno Tavares is reportedly the target of Serie A team Lazio, according to a report by Calciomercato. It will be fascinating to see if they can work out a deal with Arsenal. This summer, the Gunners intend to let go of the Portuguese defender. They don’t value the 24-year-old, and they don’t have any plans to include him in their starting lineup for the upcoming campaign.
Lazio’s convoluted pursuit of Manchester United attacker Mason Greenwood is impeding Arsenal’s desire to sell defender Nuno Tavares to the Italian team. Tavares, a defender, is apparently not an exception to the Gunners’ policy of offloading players they believe have become deadwood in recent seasons.
Lazio move could be ideal for Nuno Tavares
The Portuguese defender will find a move to Lazio quite alluring. Compared to Nottingham Forest, that would be a huge improvement. He’ll want to maintain his growth by playing regular football and becoming a regular starter for the Italian team. With coaching and experience, the 24-year-old can still make significant progress because of his youth. In the long run, the transfer would seem like a steal if Lazio could sign him this summer for a fair price.
As for Arsenal, it will be intriguing to watch if they choose to sign a good left-back this summer. In addition to Tavares, Kieran Tierney is also anticipated to depart the team, and Arsenal’s left back position is severely deficient. How the matter plays out is still to be seen.
