Liverpool -Spits Darwin Nunez is about to seal a £ 53 million move to Saudi Arabia -and for many fans it is no surprise.
The Uruguayan will join Al-Hilal after he made it clear to Liverpool officials earlier in the summer that he saw his future away from Anfield.
Nunez had asked to leave Liverpool in January when he was again interested in Saudi Aarabia, but they made the decision to hold him for the rest of the campaign, so that he could play a role in the successful title follow -up.
It has been reported that the 26-year-old will earn a stunning £ 400,000 a week at the Big Spending Club.
This would almost be about his reported wages of £ 140,000 a week in Liverpool almost triple.
Fans have now noticed that it has been the wish of the attacker to move to the middle -east for a while after an interview from February has surfaced again.
In an airy episode of Pro Direct's 'Teammates' series, Nunez and Luis Díaz fans gave a look in their personalities outside the field – kick things with a number of playful punctures about their car collections.
When Díaz playfully mocked in cars in cars, the striker shot back with a smile and a nod to the camera: 'Which car here? I need more money! '
The jokes didn't stop there. After the host suggested that Núñez Díaz should ask him to pass him more often to pick up goal bonuses, Núñez leaned in humor and replied: “Saudi. Come on, Saudi. Ring ring. '
Respondingly on the video, a fan wrote on X: 'I remember that this is thinking about it when I saw the announcement. Fair Play He now has an extensive family, so he wants to give them the best life. “
However, another wrote: 'Happy for him. It is a sport but also a job. Guy will make a murder in Saudi. '
A third added: 'Now that they are both gone (by the way more money) we can talk about how completely insane it was that this video came out in the middle of the season and nobody blinked? haha '.
Speculation around Nunez used a large part of this year this year, where Al-Nassr saw an offer that was rejected in January.
Napoli also showed interest, but they refused to meet the appreciation of Liverpool, while AC Milan is a different side that is understood as an approach.
Nunez had arrived in Liverpool from Benfica, but has difficulty fulfilling its £ 85 million transfer costs.
The frontman scored 40 goals in 143 performances for the Reds, but was criticized for a series of missed opportunities during his enchantment.
Last season he only earned seven goals and registered four assists in his 45 performances in all competitions.
Nunez was limited to only eight starts in the Premier League during their title -winning campaign.
