Newcastle are ready to sign Tino Livramento after Southampton accepted an offer worth over £40 million ($51 million).

Newcastle’s pursuit of Livramento is nearing completion after reaching an agreement with the Saints.

The negotiation process has been protracted due to Chelsea‘s right to a large sell-on fee from any sale, which has resulted in Southampton seeking a large payment in order to achieve a profitable transaction for themselves.

The brilliant 20-year-old Livramento joined Southampton from Chelsea in the summer of 2021 for a fee of £5 million ($6 million), making his possible transfer to Newcastle a profitable one.

The anticipated sale of Livramento to Newcastle is the latest in a busy transfer window for the club. Earlier this summer, they signed Sandro Tonali from AC Milan for an astounding £60 million ($76 million) and Harvey Barnes from Leicester for £38 million ($49 million).

Newcastle will kick off their 2023-24 Premier League season on August 12 against Aston Villa at St James’ Park.
