Although Liverpool have been doing well this season, Darwin Núñez 's individual situation is in contrast to that of the team. The Uruguayan has not managed to establish himself at the Reds and there is speculation that he will be transferred in the summer transfer market in Europe.

The Uruguayan striker joined the Premier League team for the 2022-23 campaign in a €85 million transfer from Benfica. Although he had some good spells with the Reds, his level was far from what he showed in that last campaign with the Eagles.

The change of coach, with the departure of Jurgen Klopp and the arrival of Arne Slot , did not help the 25-year-old Uruguayan either. In the current campaign, he came off the bench in most of the matches and has only scored 6 goals and provided 4 assists in 35 matches.

Therefore, with the aim of recovering some of the money invested in 2022, Liverpool put the Celeste player up for sale and even offered him to important European teams so as not to waste time.

According to information from El Nacional and Teledoce , the English club have contacted Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid to try to sell him at the end of the season. Liverpool are hoping for a transfer fee of around 50 million euros to get rid of him.

The Colchoneros and the Catalans are interested in the Uruguayan, something that Newcastle have also shown in recent weeks, but it remains to be seen whether they will be up to the Reds' demands when it comes to negotiations.

Darwin Núñez's numbers at Liverpool

The Peñarol player is in his third season with the Liverpool shirt. In all competitions, the Panther has played a total of 131 matches so far, scoring 39 goals and providing 22 assists. As for titles, he contributed to a Community Shield and a League Cup, although he has a great chance of adding more trophies this season.
