Tino Livramento to Man City: O’Rourke shares ‘alarming’ Newcastle update

Newcastle United are not planning to entertain offers for Tino Livramento amid interest from Man City but PSR could alter that stance, sources have told Football Insider.

Speaking on the latest edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed the alarming news that the Magpies’ financial situation could force them to cash in on a key player amid growing interest in the 22-year-old.
However, if Eddie Howe’s side qualify for next season’s Champions League, they will have a stronger chance at keeping their best players at the club.

The possibility of breaching the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules has heavily restricted Newcastle’s spending over the last two transfer windows.
While they are expected to have more room to spend in the summer after cutting their wage bill, concerns have lingered about potential player sales.

Livramento is seen as a potential big-money departure, although they are determined to keep him alongside the likes of Alexander Isak and Bruno Guimaraes.

Football Insider revealed that Man City are targeting a right-back and centre-mid as a priority ahead of the summer transfer window.
The departure of Kyle Walker has accelerated their need for a right-sided defender, while Livramento’s performances at St James’ Park have made him a key target.

Newcastle’s full-back duo of Livramento and Lewis Hall is seen as the long-term future of the club and England, and it would cost a steep price to convince them to sell.
Meanwhile, Kieran Trippier is expected to leave Newcastle in the summer, which will make his replacement’s role in the squad even more important to Eddie Howe.
Having been knocked out of the Champions League and sitting fourth in the Premier League, City spent £180million on Abdukodir Khusanov, Omar Marmoush, Vitor Reis and Nico Gonzalez.

Now, Football Insider has revealed that Man City plan to spend big again in the summer as they still feel their squad has key areas of weakness.

A new midfielder has also emerged as a key target for City, after former Man United chief scout Mick Brown told Football Insider that Kevin de Bruyne wants to move to the MLS.

Man City are targeting Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso, but are working behind the scenes to identify potential alternatives to avoid getting caught short.
