Newcastle United have reportedly set an asking price of as much as £80m for the potential transfer of full-back Tino Livramento this summer.The 22-year-old has impressed during his time at St James’ Park, having previously also been highly regarded when he was in Chelsea’s academy earlier in his career.It could now be that Livramento will earn himself another big move as Manchester City have strongly targeted him this summer.However, it may be that Livramento will be too expensive as Newcastle are said to be demanding as much as £80m to let him go, according to Football Insider.Manchester City would have to splash the cash on Tino LivramentoTino Livramento in action for Newcastle (Photo by Ryan Pierse/Getty Images)Newcastle will surely do what they can to keep this important player, as Livramento is not the kind of name they’ll want to see strengthening a top four rival.Still, it’s surely not beyond Man City to spend £80m on a new player, though they’ve already had a pretty busy start to the summer.Rayan Cherki, Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Ait-Nouri have moved to the Etihad Stadium, so one or two player sales might be required to afford Livramento.It’s also possible, however, that £80m will be deemed too much for Livramento, and that cheaper alternatives might be preferable.More Stories / Latest NewsReport: Arsenal willing to pay €90m for statement signing following talks in recent weeksJul 5 2025, 9:29Newcastle United set £80m price tag for Manchester City transfer targetJul 5 2025, 9:01Liverpool honour Diogo Jota’s legacy with heartfelt gesture to his familyJul 5 2025, 8:19Newcastle digging deep to keep star namesNewcastle have just qualified for the Champions League, so will want to keep this squad together as much as possible.There’s been plenty of speculation about the likes of Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon, but NUFC are yet to buckle and seem set to keep hold of their star names unless they receive crazy offers.Eddie Howe will surely hope that Livramento is another key part of his squad who will end up staying put for next season.The post Newcastle United set £80m price tag for Manchester City transfer target appeared first on CaughtOffside.
