Exclusive: Liverpool star in transfer discussions with top European club as the Reds seek a replacement.
Napoli, one of Serie A’s powerhouses, are reportedly serious contenders for Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez, alongside ongoing interest in Lille’s Jonathan David. Liverpool are prepared to offload Nunez and have begun identifying potential successors, with new manager Arne Slot aiming to center his attack around a fresh striker for next season.
Which clubs are pursuing Darwin Nunez?
According to CaughtOffside, Nunez is also drawing attention from Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, RB Leipzig, and Saudi Arabian giants Al Hilal.
Napoli are currently pushing for a loan move, a strategy that other European clubs may also consider. This makes Al Hilal a particularly appealing option for Liverpool, as they’re ready to offer a substantial fee for a permanent transfer.
Liverpool are reportedly open to using Nunez in a potential swap deal if the opportunity arises.
More departures on the horizon for Liverpool?
Journalist Florian Plettenberg recently posted on X that Nunez isn’t the only Liverpool forward attracting attention from Saudi clubs—Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are also being monitored.
This comes amid news that Trent Alexander-Arnold could leave on a free transfer as his contract nears expiration, hinting at a significant summer overhaul for a Liverpool side that just secured the Premier League title. Whether these changes benefit the club remains to be seen.
