Liverpool boss Arne Slot has previously refused to comment on speculation over Darwin Nunez’s future at Anfield, with Nottingham Forest now being linked with the Uruguayan striker.
Forest have reportedly submitted a “formal offer” for Nunez.
Spanish publication Fichajes claims the Reds have put forward a “formal offer” of €60 million (£50m) for the Liverpool man.
The report states Forest are “determined” to clinch Nunez’s signature “as soon as possible” and have already started talks with their Premier League rivals.
It is suggested the £50m fee could be enough to tempt the Anfield club to sell. However, with no “definitive agreement” in place there could still be a bidding war.
Asked about transfer interest in Nunez only last month, amid suggestions clubs in the Saudi Pro League were interested in the player in January, Slot said: "We don't talk about these things in public.”
Nunez’s future at Anfield remains the subject of speculation with the forward failing to nail down a starting place following Slot’s arrival as head coach.
Newcastle United and Atletico Madrid have also been linked with Nunez ahead of the summer transfer window.
