Who is Tino Livramento? Newcastle defender earns first England call-up

Tino Livramento is amongst four players earning their first senior England call-ups for the Three Lions' upcoming Nations League fixtures.

Carsley of course worked with all four at under-21 level, so is well aware of what each will bring to the squad.

Tino Livramento style of play

A strong tackler who's not shy of going to ground, Livramento is a very sound defender. The Newcastle man is more than capable of contributing in the final third, too, with his pace and eye for a pass making him a reliable creative outlet if given the freedom to get forward into the final third.

Tino Livramento career

A boyhood Chelsea fan, Livramento spent his youth in the Chelsea academy. Unable to agree a new deal, Livramento left West London for Southampton in 2021.

Livramento then moved to Newcastle United for around £32m last summer.
