If Manchester City signs Livramento this summer, Liverpool and Arsenal may want to start preparing their best “we gave it our all” speeches already. Because let’s face it—Pep Guardiola rarely adds without purpose, and this time, he may have just spotted a gap in the force field. With City’s right-back role looking about as stable as a weather forecast in Manchester, Livramento could arrive as both umbrella and sunshine.
Livramento: Pep’s Latest Puzzle Piece
While Kyle Walker has been a stalwart for City, his recent seasons have hinted at creaky hinges. Enter Livramento—young, fearless, and capable of defending, dribbling, and causing sleepless nights for wingers. The 22-year-old may not have dazzled the stat sheet last season (0 goals, 1 assist), but that’s like judging a book by its barcode. He starts 38 times a season and doesn’t even flinch.
Livramento Adds Steel and Swagger
Not only does Livramento offer cover for both flanks—a Guardiola fetish if ever there was one—but he brings athleticism, technical skill, and the kind of composure you’d expect from a man triple his age. With Ashley Cole giving him the ultimate thumbs-up, City fans can start dreaming of a future where the right side of their defense doesn’t resemble a revolving door at Heathrow.
Why Liverpool and Arsenal Should Be Nervous
Imagine trying to outscore a City team that already has Haaland, Foden, and now a right-back who can actually defend and cross. Liverpool’s full-backs are world-class, sure, but they’ll need more than Trent’s Hollywood balls if Livramento starts bombing forward. Arsenal’s young guns might want to practice tracking back—a lot.
In short, if City does sign Livramento, Pep’s chessboard just added a queen. And when Pep has a queen, well… checkmate tends to come early. Watch out, rivals—Manchester City just reloaded their winning machine again.
