Newcastle United sign Valentino Livramento

Newcastle United have completed the signing of England under-21 defender Valentino Livramento from Southampton.

The 20-year-old full-back joins the Magpies for an undisclosed fee and has agreed a contract until summer 2028.

Tino said: "I'm really excited to have signed for Newcastle United and I'm looking forward to playing in front of the fans.

"I was here for the games over the weekend; even though they were friendlies, there were so many fans and they were still so loud so I can't wait to see what it feels like to play in front of them in a Premier League or Champions League game.

"The way the manager plays football is really attractive and I feel like it suits me as a player. And with how well the team did last season, the trajectory that we're on now, I'm just looking forward to being a part of that.

"And to be able to learn from Kieran Trippier is another big thing for me; hopefully he teaches me how to become a better player and a better full-back."
