Newcastle United are hopeful of securing a deal for Southampton right-back Tino Livramento in the coming weeks. The 20-year-old is poised to leave St Mary's after the Saints' recent relegation to the Championship, with the Magpies one of many suitors.
Livramento only recently returned from an anterior cruciate ligament injury after spending 392 days on the sidelines. The youngster is one of England's brightest young prospects as is seen as the ideal back-up for Kieran Trippier on Tyneside.
Chronicle Live understands there is confidence from Newcastle's side that a deal will be achieved despite the two clubs currently sitting around £10m apart in their respective valuation of the player. Ryan Fraser is expected to go in the opposite direction as part of the deal.
