Darwin Nunez to Liverpool? Fresh update emerges on shock return claim

Darwin Nunez to Liverpool? Fresh update emerges on shock return claim Darwin Nunez has been linked with a sensational return to Liverpool. Reports had claimed that the move would not be confirmed yet as Nunez is focused on representing Uruguay at the World Cup Journalist Fabrizio Romano has now debunked the reports, stating that there have been no negotiation between Nunez’s representatives and the Reds. He said on his YouTube channel : “My information is that those close to Darwin and those close to Darwin’s camp deny this information. They say there’s nothing ongoing with Nunez and Liverpool.” Nunez left Liverpool for Saudi Pro-League side Al Hilal last summer, three years after his blockbuster move from Benfica. The 26-year-old struggled at Liverpool, scoring just 40 goals in 143 appearances across all competitions. While the Reds are looking at bolstering their attack this summer, a move for Nunez would be surprising. Liverpool exploring other attacking options Liverpool want to sign at least two forwards this summer’s tranfer window following Mohamed Salah’s departure and the long-term injury to Hugo Ekitike. RB Leipzig forward Yan Diomande is their priority target . The Ivorian is considered a perfect replacement for Salah and his attributes will complement Alexander Isak . Diomande enjoyed a great season at Leipzig, emerging as one of the best forwards in Europe. He also starred in Ivory Coast’s 1-0 victory over Ecuador in their World Cup opener. Arsenal and Manchester United are also in the race for the 19-year-old. Leipzig are reluctant to sell, but could listen to offers in excess of €100 million. Liverpool are also considering a move for Paris Saint-Germain star Bradley Barcola, although a deal is unlikely until after the World Cup.
