"Tino Livramento was stretchered off the field at St James' Park on Sunday, as his side went on to lose 2-1. Livramento has been an important signing for Newcastle since his 40m arrival from Southampton in 2023, and has been an ever present at left-back so far this season. The highly-rated defender landed awkwardly in the second half against the Gunners, and was not part of the travelling squad for the midweek trip to Union Saint-Gilloise in the Champions League a few days later."
"England international Livramento has had previous knee issues, having suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in 2022. Since moving to Tyneside, however, he's been a consistent performer and until last Sunday had played more minutes than any other Newcastle player this campaign. There was initial concern as the full-back was carried off the pitch that he could be out for several months, but the prognosis since appears to be more positive."
Tino Livramento was stretchered off at St James' Park after landing awkwardly in the second half of Newcastle's 2-1 defeat to Arsenal. The England international joined Newcastle from Southampton for £40m in 2023 and has been a regular at left-back, playing more minutes than any other Newcastle player this season until the injury. Livramento previously suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in 2022. Initial fears suggested a multi-month layoff, but manager Eddie Howe indicated a prognosis of around six to eight weeks. Livramento will miss upcoming fixtures including Nottingham Forest and could return around the November international break.
