Liverpool is ready to make a considerable financial success at Darwin Nunez this summer, if that means unload The failure striker who claimed has set a price of around 38 million GBP.
An inconsistent Niterez fought itself this season to master a starting place under Arne Slot, and was courted by Saudi Pro League Club al Nasr during the transfer window in January.
Liverpool is on the market for a new striker this summer and admires Alexander Isak, but it is most likely that someone is much cheaper and more available, which would only aggravate the prospects of Nunez.
AS writes that, as it looks, Nunez would rather not move to Saudi Arabia. Nottingham Forest, who still hopes to be in the Champions League next season, is obviously interested, but Atletico Madrid is described as a “favorite” in a step that would take the Uruguayan to Spain.
Nunez is said to have been the subject of positive “reviews” and would be open to the accession to Atletico.
From Liverpool’s point of view, the 25-year-old is a club record that was guaranteed to cost £ 64 million, and around 8 million GBP in add-ons three years. Every money that comes back would help to design the early stages of reconstruction of a squad by increasing the transmission budget.
However, Liverpool may initially be willing to sanction a loan for a nominal fee, as long as Atletico – or whoever – covers the Nunez content, and there is an option for sale that could become an obligation that is based on certain criteria. In this way, the reds were able to get back up to 38 million GBP.
In view of the disappointing lack of persistent effects of Nunez, this amount could still be seen as a success.
Nunez is one of the few signs in Liverpool of the past decade that were unsuccessful. His rise to awareness was, told the least, and recruited in Benfica in 2021/22 after reaching 34 times 34 times in 41 games. That was only his second year in a top European flight and only scored 14 goals for Benfica in the previous campaign.
