Chelsea linked with moves for former defender

There are reports that Southampton’s right-back defender, Tino Livramento could make a return to Chelsea soon.

According to the reports, the Blues have already completed a discussion with Southampton over a potential deal, which could see them loan him back to the Saints.

Southampton currently value the 20-year-old defender at £38million and have rejected offers for him from Newcastle United during this ongoing summer transfer window.

Chelsea sold Livramento for £8m but included a hefty sell-on percentage in his deal.

Livramento since joining the Saints has impressed at St Mary’s, having never made a senior football appearance at Stamford Bridge.

The report revealed Chelsea’s new manager, Mauricio Pochettino, is now keen on bringing him back to Stamford Bridge.

This move is coming as a surprise especially as the Blues already have Reece James and new arrival from Lyon, Malo Gusto, in their squad ahead of next season.
