Lazio has set an asking price of €20 million for full-back Nuno Tavares as they seek to offload him. Earlier attempts to transfer him to Porto and Beşiktaş were unsuccessful. Tavares has not played any pre-season minutes and is considered expendable by coach Gennaro Gattuso. His persistent knee issues and previous performance decline have impacted his marketability. With financial constraints, Lazio is motivated to finalize a sale, although a significant portion of any transfer fee would need to go to Arsenal due to a sell-on clause.
