MANCHESTER CLUBS SHOW INTEREST IN NEWCASTLE’S TINO LIVRAMENTO

Newcastle's Tino Livramento is a target for both Manchester United and Manchester City, setting up a potential 2026 transfer battle. The 22-year-old full-back is highly rated by Eddie Howe despite a recent knee injury.

Tino Livramento, a full-back for Newcastle, is a target for both Manchester United and Manchester City, and a 2026 transfer struggle may ensue.

The 22-year-old joined St. James' Park in 2023 after moving from Southampton for an initial £32 million.

He has made 88 appearances for the Magpies and earned his first three England caps, demonstrating his impressive play under Eddie Howe.

The defender has only made eight appearances across all competitions this season due to a knee ailment, which has hindered his progress. However, he is anticipated to make a comeback later this month.

After that, the Croydon-born defender will want to return to Newcastle's starting lineup and do well enough to earn a position at the World Cup the following year.

The Chelsea academy graduate might have a fantastic summer because major teams are interested in signing him.

Despite the fact that their attempt to sign him during the last transfer window was unsuccessful, Manchester City's desire has not diminished.

Ben Jacobs of GiveMeSport told The United Strand that the Red Devils are also interested in the adaptable defender who can play on either wing or at full-back.

He points out that Jason Wilcox, the director of football at Manchester United, had the same role at Southampton while Livramento was a member of the Saints.

But according to the source, Manchester City is "most keen" about acquiring Livramento and is the front-runner to do so.

If he leaves Newcastle at all, that is, since the Magpies are eager to hold onto a player Howe really likes.

According to reports, Newcastle is eager for Livramento to sign a new contract once his current one expires in 2028. He is still bound by the one he signed when he moved from the Saints.

Before the international break, Howe discussed the defender's injury state and expressed hope that he would return on November 22 against one of his pursuers.

SANDRO TONALI SETBACK REPORTED AS FABRIZIO ROMANO UPDATES NEWCASTLE STAFF ON ISSUE

Newcastle's Sandro Tonali has returned from Italy duty early after picking up a knock. The midfielder, who has never been injured for the Magpies, is now a doubt for the crucial Premier League clash against Manchester City.

After playing for Italy during the international break, Sandro Tonali is coming back to Newcastle United.

Tonali, a midfielder for Newcastle United who is only one card away from a suspension, was predicted to miss Italy's match against Norway on Monday night anyway. 

The 25-year-old would have been suspended for the first leg of Italy's probable play-off match for World Cup qualifying if he had received a yellow card in Milan.

Tonali played the entire game as Gennaro Gattuso's team defeated Moldova on Thursday, despite Italy's announcement that they will rest him against Norway.  

He seems to have received a knock, and Fabrizio Romano has revealed the most recent information.


Sandro Tonali is back at Newcastle United following an injury to his Italy.


The Italian football reporter shared an update on the social networking site X on Saturday.

He disclosed that Tonali had not fully recovered and would no longer be taken on as a risk in the international camp. A decision has been reached not to stay for the Norway game.

The former AC Milan player will now return to Tyneside after being notified of this by Newcastle's medical team.

Newcastle United's stellar injury record with Sandro Tonali  


I hope that is not a significant problem. Perhaps it is not, since he played the entire match against Moldova and no serious issues were mentioned.

It is impressive that Tonali has never missed a Newcastle game due to injury.  

Although he has missed months of play owing to a betting suspension and been rested on occasion due to illness this season, he has never been injured.

That cannot begin now, and Eddie Howe cannot afford it.  

After the international break, Newcastle will play an in-form Manchester City, and they urgently need to bounce back from a terrible run of play in recent weeks.

The game will be challenging enough without Tonali, but it would be much more difficult without her.

NEWCASTLE CONFIRM JOELINTON DAMAGE AFTER BRENTFORD HORROR SCENE

Newcastle United received a major injury boost as Joelinton's knee-high scare vs Brentford is just a cut, making him likely to face Man City. Tino Livramento is also on track for a comeback, while Anthony Gordon's hip issue is minor.

Ahead of their crucial matchup with Manchester City the following weekend, Newcastle United has received the perfect boost.

Joelinton had an injury early on at the Gtech Stadium and was subsequently sent off after just 24 minutes, which disrupted the game plan even though the Magpies lost 3-1 against Brentford. Eddie Howe made the difficult choice to replace the uneasy Brazilian as he sat hunched down on the ground.

Even though Joelinton's exclusion from the Brazil squad for matches against Senegal at the Emirates Stadium and Tunisia in Lille seemed like a setback at first, it might have turned out to be a boon of sorts. According to Chronicle Live, Joelinton only received a cut after an evaluation, after Dango Outtara challenged him.

Images of the star's leg displaying a terrible cut and the possibility of additional damage raised serious concerns for Toon medics during the Outtara knee-high challenge.

Joelinton has been evaluated, according to United insiders, and will be watched closely at the training facility in the hopes that the former Hoffenheim player will be prepared to play against City.

"I am not sure, it seemed like a knock, but it was certainly enough for him to go off," Howe had said during his press conference following the game on Sunday. The medical staff has not given me a thorough explanation or debriefing on him. Today, he was a huge miss.

However, Howe may now include Joelinton in his preparations for Pep Guardiola's team's visit, and it is also thought that Tino Livramento would join him. The former Chelsea player has not played since suffering a knee injury against Arsenal in September.

Although Livramento was not included in the Brentford squad, Howe is considering the City match as a possible return date. Livramento has missed ten games in all competitions.

"Tino is still on track, we are looking at the Manchester City game for him for when he can be available," Howe stated last Friday.

The black and whites also continue to investigate Anthony Gordon's hip problem, but the knock to the England man's side is only classed as a 'minor injury'.

Gordon was taken out of the Three Lions camp on Sunday and missed England's matches against Serbia and Albania. He was not included in Brentford's squad after being substituted out due to injury during the 2-0 victory at St James' Park against Athletic Bilbao in the Champions League.
