Standing out from Benfica ranks throughout latest two first-team football seasons of his, 21-year old Portuguese left-back Nuno Tavares, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, has just been approached by an opening bid, pitched down by Napoli management. On Partenopei boss Luciano Spalletti's suggestion, Italian giants submitted a 12 million euros' worth proposal.
The 2000-born, whom a quite unviable 88 million euros exit clause is set upon, was recently inquired about by a bunch more clubs, notably Burnley, Newcastle, and AS Roma. Suitable also as a right-back and as a wingback, Tavares, still on a deal with Aguias until June 2024, might soon be on his way out indeed.
