His time at OM will not go down in history. And yet, Nuno Tavares lives again in Serie A. Sparkling with Lazio Rome, the Portuguese full-back impresses to the point that Claudio Lottito refuses to sell him even for €70 million. An exit which should provoke a reaction from OM who had refused to keep him following his loan from Arsenal.
It’s probably an outing that risks making some Marseillais jump. Indeed, Nuno Tavareswhich did not leave an indelible mark during its passage to theABOUT where he was on loan from Arsenal, has been shining since the start of the season at Lazio Rome. So much so that Claudio Lottito assures that he will not sell it, even for €70M.
“I won’t even sell it for €70 million”
« I won't even sell it for €70 million. We beat out a lot of big name competitors to sign him », Confided the president of the Lazio in the columns ofThe Messenger. Hard to believe in Marseille where Nuno Tavares did not leave a very good memory, and yet, Marco Baroni also recently praised the Portuguese full-back.
“Tavares is a player with great potential”
« Tavares is a player with great potential. No wonder he became an Arsenal player. Now we need to get it back on track. He gave a very good performance, we expected him because he had a small injury after his arrival. I think Nuno Tavares hadn't started a match since February, so it was also a risk to bring him here, but he has quality and we wanted to get him in the best physical shape. We've done a lot of crosses from the right this season, so we needed someone like Nuno Tavares to push on the left as well. I am convinced that we will create the right structure so that he can give his best and improve even more », assured the coach of the Lazio.
