Right
6'0"
143 lb
Knee injury confirmed
Livramento has been out for the past month due to a knee injury suffered while training and still has no clear return date, likely to miss the next international break, according to Craig Hope of the Daily Mail.
Analysis: Livramento has been out for over the past month due to an injury bu little has come forward about his situation, with it finally known that he has been out with a knee injury. The club is handling the ordeal cautiously following his past injury issues, hoping to risk no further setbacks during an already lengthy absence. The bad news is that no return is in sight, as he will likely miss out on the next international break, leaving a return coming near the end of November if everything goes well. This continues to leave Newcastle low in full-back depth as they progress in the season, but luckily that have summer-signing Amar Dedic to serve as a quality right-back.
Still weeks away from return
Livramento (undisclosed) remains sidelined for Saturday's Premier League clash against Aston Villa after missing Newcastle's matches against Hull City and Coventry City, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "With Tino we need to be cautious and we don't rush him. We know about his injury situation and history but we're optimistic in the next few weeks we can bring him back step by step."
Analysis: Livramento has missed Newcastle's last two matches against Hull City and Coventry City due to an undisclosed injury, with his recovery still ongoing. The defender remains unavailable for Saturday's clash against Aston Villa, as manager Matthias Jaissle indicated that his return is still a few weeks away. No precise comeback date has been established, leaving Newcastle without one of their regular defensive options. Lewis Miley could continue providing cover at right-back until Livramento is ready to return.
Not available Monday
Livramento (undisclosed) is not in the squad for Monday's game against Coventry City.
Analysis: Livramento was deemed questionable to play against the Sky Blues, and the England international isn't ready to return yet. His next chance to play will come against Aston Villa on Saturday, but his involvement will ultimately depend on how involved he is in training throughout the week.
Questionable for Coventry clash
Livramento (undisclosed) has yet to be confirmed back in full team training ahead of Monday's clash against Coventry City, according to coach Matthias Jaissle, per Chronicle Live. "They returned but not everyone was in today. We allowed some of them an extra day so tomorrow they are fully back."
Analysis: Livramento's availability remains in doubt after he withdrew from England's squad due to an injury that had already forced him out against Hull City. The defender was absent from Newcastle's first training session during the international break, and manager Matthias Jaissle's latest comments offer no confirmation that he has returned to full participation. Lewis Miley could provide cover at right-back if Livramento remains unavailable, although the latter's status will need to be reassessed closer to Monday's match.
Not training with team
Livramento (undisclosed) wasn't spotted in Tuesday's first team training session during the break, according to Craig Hope of the Daily Mail.
Analysis: Livramento had withdrawn from England's squad for this month's Nations League qualifiers due to the injury that forced him out of the match against Hull City, an issue that has followed a recent minor surgery and calf problem. His continued absence from training now leaves his status uncertain heading into the resumption of Newcastle's season against Coventry on Oct. 12. Lewis Miley could get increased playing time in his spot during his recovery.
Withdraws from England squad
Livramento has withdrawn from the England squad for this month's Nations League qualifiers due to injury, according to the club.
Analysis: Livramento's withdrawal from international duty confirms the injury that forced him to miss Saturday's match against Hull City remains an issue heading into the break. The full-back had experienced discomfort following training and underwent an MRI, though Newcastle have yet to provide details on the nature or severity of the problem. Livramento had only recently returned from minor surgery and a calf issue, making this another setback after three substitute appearances to begin the campaign. His availability following the international break remains uncertain.
Set for scan
Livramento was left out of Newcastle's squad for Saturday's match against Hull City after feeling discomfort and is set to undergo a scan, according to head coach Matthias Jaissle, per The Northern Echo "He [Livramento] suffered some discomfort in the morning after yesterday's training, At the moment, we should already have the results from the MRI, but there is nothing more from my end."
Analysis: Livramento had been set for his first start of the campaign with Amar Dedic (hamstring) sidelined, making his sudden withdrawal another major headache for Matthias Jaissle and forcing him to deploy Lewis Miley at right-back. The full-back had been steadily building up his match fitness through three cameo appearances off the bench following minor surgery and a calf lay-off, so this setback leaves his availability shrouded in uncertainty once again. An upcoming scan should offer greater clarity on whether he faces a brief period on the sidelines or a more extended spell out.
Ruled out due to injury
Livramento (undisclosed) has been ruled out of Saturday's clash with Hull City, according to Lee Ryder of Chronicle Live.
Analysis: Livramento had only just returned from the summer thigh injury that cost him a spot at the World Cup, building up minutes against Bournemouth, Millwall and Leeds before this new setback. With both recognized right backs unavailable, Newcastle are likely to turn to Lewis Miley at right back, and Livramento is expected to be pulled from the England squad for the upcoming Nations League matches after being called up alongside teammate Lewis Hall.
Plays 45 minutes in EFL Cup
Livramento came off the bench in Tuesday's 1-0 win over Millwall in the EFL Cup.
Analysis: Livramento entered the game during the HT break and replaced Amar Dedic, who has been the starter at right-back in the early stages of the season. Livramento will look to continue building up match fitness when the Magpies take on Leeds United on Monday, though he's still a bit away from starting a league match. Until he's ready to start, Dedic and Lewis Hall should continue to operate as the Magpies' full-backs.
Won't start in Carabao Cup
Livramento won't start in Tuesday's Carabao Cup tilt against Millwall, according to manager Matthias Jaissle. "We need to wait until he is 100% ready. He has huge potential, and we can't wait to have him back," Jaissle said, while replying "no" when asked if Livramento was ready to start Tuesday.
Analysis: Livramento made his season debut as a substitute for Lewis Hall in last week's draw against Bournemouth, but after missing all of preseason and the first three competitive matches of the 2026/27 campaign, he's not ready to start yet. Even though Newcastle are widely expected to rotate the squad Tuesday, Livramento's focus for the time being is on recovering his match fitness, so he won't crack the XI in this midweek cup tie. His next chance to start will come in the Premier League against Leeds United on Monday, Sept. 14.
Option off bench
Livramento (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Bournemouth.
Analysis: Livramento makes his return to the matchday squad after being fully integrated into team training since late August, with coach Matthias Jaissle stopping short of handing him a starting role despite expressing hope that his comeback was imminent. The full-back had been absent for an extended period, and Newcastle opted to manage his workload carefully with a bench role rather than throwing him straight back into the starting lineup. Amar Dedic is expected to continue at right-back, with Livramento available to provide cover as the club eases him back into competitive action.
Closing in on return
Livramento (calf) continues to work toward his return after being fully integrated into team training, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "Tino, hopefully, comes soon back."
Analysis: Livramento has been training fully since late August following his lengthy absence, but Matthias Jaissle remains cautious about confirming when the full-back will return to competitive action. Saturday's clash against Bournemouth could still come too soon, especially given Newcastle's desire to carefully manage his workload after the extended layoff. Amar Dedic should continue to start at right-back until Livramento is cleared for match action.
Back in training but not ready yet
Livramento (calf) is back in training but won't be an option for Saturday's contest against Tottenham Hotspur, according to manager Matthias Jaissle. "We are happy now that he is back in training and he is now also fully integrated. He still follows somehow an individual programme but sooner than later. He is fully back in training and then we can talk about squad plannings when he will be able to be in the matchday squads and getting the first minutes," he said. "But, again, step by step. He was long out and we want to take our time and learn out of the past. Giving him rather one week longer than shorter to have him on a consistent basis back."
Analysis: The England international is back in full training and trending in the right direction, but based on Jaissle's comments, it seems this game will come a bit too soon for the full-back. Newcastle are taking a cautious approach with Livramento, so the Sep. 5 match against Bournemouth might be a more realistic return date for him. In the meantime, Amar Dedic should continue to start on the right side of the defense with Lewis Hall on the opposite flank.
Ruled out of season opener
Livramento (calf) is out for Sunday's season opener against Liverpool, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "It is too early to say on Tino, he was partially involved, but we need to be smart with his progress now. We need to wait until he is 100% fit."
Analysis: Livramento had only recently returned to partial training as he worked his way back from the calf injury suffered at the World Cup with England, and manager Matthias Jaissle's caution now confirms he won't be rushed back for the opener despite that progress. Amar Dedic could start in his place if he's built up enough training reps, with Lewis Miley also capable of covering the role. Livramento is expected to continue building toward full fitness with his return targeted for the coming weeks.
Rejoins full training
Livramento is back training alongside the rest of his teammates as of Wednesday, a positive sign with the Premier League season opener against Liverpool approaching, according to Keith Downie.
Analysis: Livramento's return to full training is a significant step forward as he works his way back from the calf injury he suffered at the World Cup with England. He's an undisputed starter at right back when fit, having made 17 Premier League appearances last season, including 14 starts, though he now faces fresh competition for the role following Newcastle's recent signing of Amar Dedic. Livramento is expected to continue building up his sharpness as the club finalizes its plans ahead of the opener. His timely return gives Newcastle United a fuller set of options at right back heading into the new campaign.
Back on the pitch
Livramento (calf) is back on the pitch as his recovery from the calf injury he suffered at the World Cup with England continues, the club announced.
Analysis: Livramento had been trailing behind his injured teammates in his recovery timeline, making this return to the pitch a positive step forward. He's an undisputed starter at right back when fit, having made 17 Premier League appearances last season, including 14 starts, though a difficult, injury hit campaign overall has the staff taking a cautious approach with his buildup. Livramento is expected to continue building toward full training as his recovery progresses.
Issue slows recovery
Livramento (calf) remains further behind his injured teammates in his recovery from the calf injury he suffered at the World Cup with England in June, according to coach Eddie Howe, per Chronicle Live. "They're all looking like they'll be back and available around La Manga, maybe Tino Livramento apart. I think the squad's in relatively good health"
Analysis: Livramento was forced to leave England's World Cup squad in June due to the issue, and his recovery timeline now appears to be trailing the club's other sidelined players heading into the La Manga training camp. The defender's pace and attacking threat from full back make his eventual return an important boost for Newcastle United once he's back to full fitness. He is expected to continue his individual recovery program as the rest of the squad progresses through preseason.
Misses friendly, continues rehab
Livramento (calf) missed Newcastle's first pre-season friendly, but was seen working in the gym on his recovery five days before the game, continuing to build back from calf injury and surgery that cost him the World Cup, the club posted.
Analysis: Livramento's summer has gone from a promising World Cup opportunity to injury setback. A calf problem in training forced him out of England's squad just days before the tournament began, leading to surgery back at Newcastle. Missing the club's first preseason friendly was already expected given how recently he went under the knife, and the gym work shown this week is a normal early stage of that rehab rather than a signal he's close to full training. Reports still have him weeks away, and the more meaningful update will come once he progresses to full sessions.
Undergoes minor surgery
Livramento (calf) has successfully undergone a minor surgical procedure after returning from World Cup duty with the injury, with the club expecting him back during preseason, the club announced.
Analysis: Livramento had withdrawn from England's World Cup squad with a calf issue, just weeks after recovering from a previous thigh problem that limited him to 45 minutes in a friendly against New Zealand. His successful procedure is a positive sign for Newcastle as they prepare for the 2026/27 campaign, with the defender expected to be ready by the time preseason work begins.
Set to miss 4-5 weeks
Livramento (calf) is expected to be inactive for "four or five weeks, which is unfortunately too long to keep on." following his withdrawal from England's squad for the World Cup, according to the national team's manager Thomas Tuchel, Henry Winter of World Soccer reports.
Analysis: Livramento won't take part in the major international competition, but his expected timeline suggests he'll be back for club action in the 2026/27 season. He had just recovered from a previous thigh issue, logging 45 minutes of play during an international friendly game against New Zealand. His place in the Three Lions' roster was taken by Trevoh Chalobah after the injury was confirmed.
