Arsenal defender Nuno Tavares wants to stay at the club this summer, despite a potential flurry of exits over the coming weeks, according to his agent. The Portuguese left-back is set to return to the Gunners in the near future for pre-season, having spent the previous campaign on loan at Marseille.
That move came after a difficult first season with the Gunners in 2021/22, having made the £7million switch from Benfica in the summer. Having been viewed as a promising backup to Kieran Tierney, the youngster may have received more game time than bargained for as his Scottish counterpart picked up several injuries.
While there were moments where he would shine, such as a strike against Manchester United, there were plenty to forget such as his substitution in a defeat to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup that resulted in a reaction on the bench when he came off. A loan to Marseille last season followed, where he made 39 appearances across all competitions.
