Arsenal have confirmed left-back Nuno Tavares' loan move to Serie A side Lazio has been made permanent.

The 25-year-old joined the Gunners from Benfica in July 2021 and made 28 appearances for the club in all competitions.

Tavares spent the 2022-23 and 2023-24 seasons on loan at Marseille and Nottingham Forest respectively before spending last year in Italy.

Tavarez' only Arsenal goal came in a 3-1 win over Manchester United at Emirates Stadium in April 2022.
