Liverpool have reportedly set the asking price for Darwin Nunez, as the striker explores potential destinations for a summer exit.
The Merseyside club have already signed Hugo Ekitike this summer for over €90m. They are also interested in Alexander Isak, according to various sources.
Newcastle have already rejected the Premier League champions’ bid close to £110m, but reports suggest the Swedish forward has no issue joining the Reds this summer.
If Isak lands at Anfield, Liverpool’s squad will be jam-packed with forwards. The Uruguayan striker might already be aware of this, as Arne Slot has reportedly not included him in the plans for the upcoming season.
Nunez might have decided to leave the club as early as June, as per multiple sources. Many clubs have shown interest in him since the start of the summer transfer window.

Liverpool set asking price for Darwin Nunez
Fabrizio Romano reported that Liverpool are demanding around €65m for Darwin Nunez. The player wants to leave this summer, and if the market doesn’t move accordingly, the Reds might lower their asking price.
Serie A champions Napoli were previously interested in the forward, but the deal didn’t go through due to a clear valuation gap between the two clubs, which resulted in missed opportunities for both teams in the transfer market.
Currently, Saudi giants Al-Hilal are showing strong interest in Nunez and could soon present their project to the Uruguayan. If the player agrees to move to Saudi Arabia, the deal could be easier for the Merseyside club to complete.
