Lazio Aims to Retain Tavares Amid Growing Interest

Nuno Tavares, a left-back from Arsenal, currently on loan at Lazio, has been in outstanding form. His exceptional performances have caught the attention of both Serie A and Premier League clubs. Under the guidance of Marco Baroni, Tavares has had a remarkable start to the season, registering nine assists in 22 matches.

Reports suggest that Lazio is determined to keep the 25-year-old despite increasing interest from other teams. The club’s sporting director, Angelo Mariano Fabiani, confirmed that Tavares is attracting significant interest in the transfer market but emphasized that Lazio has no plans to weaken their squad.

In the Premier League, Nottingham Forest and Brighton are keen to bolster their defences with Tavares. Meanwhile, Inter and other Italian teams are also monitoring his progress in Serie A.

Juventus is one of the main contenders to acquire Tavares, considering a swap deal involving Dusan Vlahovic. Arsenal has had a long-standing interest in the Serbian striker, and acquiring a new central forward is a top priority for the Gunners this summer. A potential exchange could expedite the negotiations between the clubs. Despite these rumours, Lazio remains intent on retaining their left-back.
