Newcastle United will demand £80 million to reluctantly sell 22-year-old Valentino Livramento in the summer transfer window amid his links with Manchester City.

According to a report by Football Insider, Valentino Livramento is the subject of interest from Manchester City. The Citizens are eager to bolster their defensive unit by signing a right-back in the summer transfer window. So, the 22-year-old Newcastle United wide player has emerged as a target for the Premier League giants.

While the Magpies do not want to part ways with the Englishman in the summer transfer window, they have set a hefty eight-figure asking price to reluctantly part ways with him. Newcastle United will demand £80 million to sell Livramento amid his links with Manchester City.

Valentino Livramento and his rise

Valentino Livramento has established himself as one of the best young prospects in the Premier League since leaving Chelsea a few years ago. The 22-year-old rose in prominence during his spell with Southampton but has seen his stock soar since joining Newcastle United in August 2023.

The English international has turned out nearly 100 times thus far for Newcastle United while chipping in with one goal and two assists. Meanwhile, Livramento’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs. Manchester City will be among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.

Move across the Premier League on the cards?

Manchester City’s interest in Valentino Livramento is understandable. The Citizens are scouring the market for a right-back this summer as they prepare to part ways with Kyle Walker. The former Manchester City captain is closing in on joining Burnley, with the newly promoted club striking an agreement for a bargain move.

In addition, Rico Lewis has yet to be convincing enough to establish himself as an undisputed first-choice starter for Manchester City. So, Livramento has emerged as a viable target for Manchester City, with the Premier League giants confident that the Englishman wants to move to the Etihad. However, Newcastle United would prefer not to sell the 22-year-old, although they have set an asking price to sell him.

The Tyneside outfit will demand £80 million to reluctantly part ways with Livramento in the summer transfer window. However, it is unclear if Manchester City will fork out a hefty eight-figure fee to land the English international amid Newcastle United’s reluctance to sell him.
