Liverpool are said to be ready to accept an offer worth around €60 million to sell Darwin Nunez this summer. Just a few months ago, The Kop rejected a more fat-fied offer for the striker from Saudi Arabia.
The 25-year-old striker is expected to leave Anfield after a disappointing campaign. And there have been discussions about the Uruguayan's chances of leaving the Premier League.
Nunez was sought after by many teams in the Middle East when Al-Nassr made a £60 million offer in January, but was rejected. Interest in Nunez from the Saudi Pro League has reappeared this summer. However, the former Benfica player is not interested in making such a move at this stage of his career.
Luckily for Nunez, he also received the chase of Serie A teams such as AC Milan and Napoli. Both want to own the striker, who is valued at around €60 million by Corriere dello Sport.
Liverpool's current valuation for Nunez is similar to the initial fee they paid him before adding allowances in the summer of 2022. This shows that their stance has been more towards selling the Uruguayan.
The Reds have also aimed to sign a new striker this summer. Hugo Ekitike of Eintracht Frankfurt is currently Liverpool's top target. But with the club's record £116m deal for Florian Wirtz in progress, Liverpool need to sell players if they want to buy more.
After making just eight Premier League appearances under Arne Slot last season, Nunez is ready to move this summer to get his career back on track.
Although it is not yet known whether Nunez is interested in moving to Serie A, his move from Anfield will certainly allow him to continue playing at the top level in Europe.
Slot praised Nunez for his contribution to the Premier League title last season and his spirit of not giving up.
"I don't know exactly what will happen. One of the main strengths we have had this season is that everyone has accepted Nunez's role.
Sometimes his role can be to start every game, almost unchanged, sometimes substituted. Sometimes he can't play, sometimes he can't play for many minutes," said the Dutch captain.
