Arsenal full-back Nuno Tavares, 24 years old, is almost heading to Lazio in Italy. Talks on personal matters have progressed him one step closer to joining the Serie A powerhouse. In July 2021 Tavares came from Benfica to Arsenal. Born in Lisbon, he first lived at Casa Pia AC and Sporting CP before going to the youth program of SL Benfica. Though he arrived to Arsenal with great expectations, he has fallen short. His first season at Arsenal was underwhelming, which resulted in loan trips far from Arsenal. He joined Nottingham Forest on loan last summer, but only put in 696 minutes in 12 outings. Now returning to Arsenal, Tavares has an unclear future.

Reportedly interested in acquiring Wolves winger Pedro Neto this summer is Tottenham Hotspur. Arsenal also keeps an eye on the Portuguese international born 24 years ago. Fabrizio Romano via Give Me Sport claims that Tottenham often interacts with Neto’s agent and has begun talks on a possible acquisition. For the Wolverhampton Wanderers winger, Arsenal will provide competition, however.
Tottenham wants to guarantee the terms of any agreement are acceptable as Neto has suffered many injuries. They are not ready to splurge on luxury. Much will rely on the needs of Wolves. In the Premier League, Neto is very regarded and has bright potential. He may be a great acquisition to Tottenham, improving their assault. The 24-year-old would add goals, inventiveness, and flair to the club and can play on either flank. Reportedly worth £60 million, he is yet to be seen if Tottenham will pay that much. Spurs must also manage their expenditure as other sections of their team require development.
Arsenal wants to improve their offensive as well, hence Neto seems to be a wise long-term investment. He is comfortable in the Premier League and, should he join Arsenal, could have an instantaneous influence. Often overworking players like Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, the Gunners have battled with squad depth. Neto would provide them much needed rotation choices.
