Southampton boss Martin confirms Livramento leaving for Newcastle

Southampton boss Russell Martin has confirmed Tino Livramento is leaving.

Newcastle United have launched a bid rising to £40m for the wing-back.

It's claimed Saints have now accepted Newcastle's offer.

And after their opening night Championship win against Sheffield Wednesday, Martin said: "Tino has to undergo a medical check-up and I wish him all the best.

"I have only worked with him for five weeks, but I had hoped that the collaboration would have been longer."
