Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez started to make his name in Spain with Almeria, and this summer he could be back to La Liga. The Liverpool attacker is aware that he should find a new club this summer, and the Reds would like to move him further.
In the January transfer window he received interest from Saudi Arabia, but Al-Nassr decided to spend greatly on Jhon Duran van Aston Villa instead. Some claim that he is still interested in the middle, but it seems that his primary options are in England and Spain, according to Diario ALS. They explain that Nottingham Forest wants Nunez, especially if they are eligible for the Champions League next season. In La Liga, NUNEZ is linked to Barcelona – his agent Jorge Mendes has close relationships with the Blaugrana – but Atletico Madrid seem to be his most important vovers.
Liverpool is willing to allow NUNEZ to leave loan to reclaim some its value, provided that each club takes interested salary and an option to buy. In total they hope to earn back € 40-45 million from the deal, which is still a considerable loss of the € 75 million they spent on Nunez. Liverpool also wants stimuli to increase the option to obligation, depending on the objectives.
For Los Rojiblancos this fits in the account: cheap and good. Director of Voetbal Carlos Bucero investigates the option, but loves the finances of the deal. This season, Nunez scored seven times and gave seven assists in his 42 performances, but that average as a target contribution slightly more than every two games during the 1,920 minutes he has seen in action.
After having spent just under € 35 million on an impressive goalkeeper in Alexander Sorloth last summer, it seems a bit surprising to bring similar characteristics. However, it might speak about the rumors that Angel Correa is on his way to the club, and Antoine Griezmann may be in the Metropolitano last year. Depending on the objectives set, it can also be a bargain.
