Early life

Born in Croydon, Livramento joined Chelsea at under-9 level from local club Roundshaw.[3][4][5][6] At Roundshaw he played as a striker.[7] Growing up, he supported Chelsea.[8] His father's side of the family comes from Portugal[9] and his mother is Scottish.[10]

Club career

Chelsea

He was named Chelsea academy player of the year for the 2020–21 season.[11] Towards the end of the season, Livramento featured on the bench in Premier League fixtures against Manchester City and Arsenal.[12][13]

In July 2021, contract talks between Chelsea and Livramento stalled, with rumours that the wing-back was set to leave the club.[5][14] He was reportedly subject to interest from a host of English clubs, including South Coast rivals Southampton and Brighton & Hove Albion, as well as A.C. Milan and RB Leipzig.[5][15]

Southampton

Having failed to reach an agreement with Chelsea, Livramento signed for fellow Premier League side Southampton in August 2021, with a reported buy-back clause of £25 million included.[4] On 14 August 2021, Livramento made his first Premier League appearance for Southampton in a 3–1 defeat to Everton.[16] On 23 October 2021, Livramento scored his first professional goal in Southampton’s 2–2 draw with Burnley.[17]

International career

Despite Livramento representing England through the youth ranks up to Under-21 level, he is also eligible to play for the Scotland and Portugal national teams through his mother being Scottish and his father being Portuguese.[18]

On 27 August 2021, Livramento received his first call up for the England U21s.[19] On 7 September 2021, he made his England U21 debut during the 2–0 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification win over Kosovo U21s at Stadium MK.[20]
