Liverpool’s Darwin Núñez is on the verge of a significant transfer to the Saudi Pro League, with Al-Hilal reportedly finalizing a deal for the Uruguayan striker. As of 2025-08-06 17:35:00, negotiations are ongoing, and both clubs are optimistic about reaching an agreement soon.
- Darwin Núñez allowed to negotiate with Al-Hilal.
- Liverpool seeks around £60m for Núñez.
- Al-Hilal's offer includes initial £46m plus add-ons.
- Liverpool's player sales exceed £250m since last summer.
- Club invested nearly £300m on players this summer.
- £110m bid for Alexander Isak still active.
Núñez, who started eight Premier League games last season, has attracted interest from several clubs, including Milan and Napoli. However, financial constraints have made a move to Al-Hilal more appealing, especially given Liverpool’s aim to recoup around £60 million from the initial £64 million they paid to Benfica in 2022.
The potential move raises questions about player adaptability and club strategy. Can Liverpool effectively replace Núñez if he departs? And what does this mean for the Premier League’s competitiveness?
- Núñez’s transfer could take Liverpool’s player sales past £250 million.
- Al-Hilal’s offer includes an initial £46 million plus add-ons.
- Liverpool’s summer spending has approached £300 million, with a bid for Alexander Isak still on the table.
As the Community Shield against Crystal Palace approaches, Liverpool fans will be eager to see if Núñez features in the match, or if a deal is finalized before then.
