Liverpool forward receive enquire from two Serie A giants

Liverpool have reportedly received enquiries from AC Milan and Napoli for Uruguayan forward Darwin Nunez.

According to Matteo Moretto, AC Milan have become the latest club, after Serie A champions Napoli, to show serious interest in the forward.

Liverpool are also open to selling Darwin Nunez, with multiple reports suggesting the Reds have marked him for sale this summer.

Arne Slot might not be considering the Uruguayan in his project for the upcoming season. His performances last season were far from convincing, as he scored only 7 goals in 47 appearances across all competitions.

Those numbers are not ideal for a striker at a top club like Liverpool. That could be one of the reasons why he lost his spot in the starting XI.

AC Milan’s new manager, Massimiliano Allegri, might see Nunez as a player who fits his system. The Italian manager is looking for a striker to lead his frontline in his first season back in charge.

On the other side, after winning Serie A, Antonio Conte wants to rebuild the Napoli squad. The club has secured Kevin De Bruyne, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano. Conte is now looking to bring in a striker, as it has been reported that Victor Osimhen is considering leaving this summer.

Liverpool reportedly set Darwin Nunez’s asking price

The Premier League champions are reportedly demanding around €70 million for the Uruguayan forward, as per multiple sources.

Other clubs beyond Italy are also keeping an eye on Nunez. Saudi giants Al-Hilal are reportedly ready to meet Liverpool’s asking price, but the forward may not be keen on leaving Europe yet. At just 25—soon to be 26 later this month—he still sees his future in European football.
