Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is drawing significant interest from several top European clubs, with Napoli emerging as a key contender. Sources have told CaughtOffside that the Italian side has already initiated discussions with Nunez’s camp as they search for a new striker.
While Napoli is also targeting Lille’s Jonathan David, Nunez appears to be a serious option, especially with Liverpool reportedly open to letting him go. New head coach Arne Slot is said to be planning to reshape the attack, possibly around a new central striker.
In addition to Napoli, Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, RB Leipzig, and Saudi club Al Hilal are also keeping tabs on the Uruguayan forward. Napoli is believed to be exploring a loan deal, a strategy that may be mirrored by other European suitors. However, Al Hilal could have the upper hand if they offer a full transfer, which would bring in significant funds for Liverpool.
There is also speculation that Liverpool might consider a swap deal involving Nunez if the right opportunity presents itself.
Other Potential Exits at Liverpool
Nunez isn’t the only Liverpool attacker on the radar of Saudi clubs. Journalist Florian Plettenberg recently reported that Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are also being targeted.
Additionally, Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to leave the club on a free transfer when his contract expires.
