Arne Slot has all but confirmed that Darwin Nunez will leave Liverpool - although he refused to be drawn on whether Alexander Isak could be his replacement.

Nunez is set to join Al Hilal, with the striker expected to arrive at the Saudi Pro League side's training camp in Germany in order to undergo his medical, having been absent from Liverpool's latest training session on Thursday.

His impending exit comes as speculation continues over a potential move for Alexander Isak.



The Newcastle striker has this week been forced to train alone as he looks to be angling for a move to Merseyside, although Slot wasn't about to give anything away as he spoke to the media ahead of Sunday's Community Shield against Crystal Palace.

"As you know, from me and I think every manager works like this, you never talk about players that aren't yours, so I can talk to you about Hugo [Ekitike] who we've signed recently and has done really well until now," Slot said.

"We are very happy with the squad we are having, and we have every reason to be happy about that because we won the league last season.

Okay, players left, but we've brought players in as well, and youngsters are doing good.

"At this moment in time, Darwin might leave, but things are not signed yet, so we need to wait maybe a few days before that is completely done, but there is indeed a chance that he is going to leave."
