Darwin Nunez is poised to leave Liverpool this summer, with multiple European clubs and Saudi Pro League giants circling the Uruguayan striker after a turbulent three-year spell at Anfield.

The 25-year-old, signed for a club-record £85 million from Benfica in 2022, has failed to cement his place under manager Arne Slot, prompting Liverpool to explore a sale to fund a revamp of their attacking options.

Liverpool have already paid £76.8 million of Núñez’s initial £85 million fee, with £8.5 million pending performance clauses.

While the club rejected a £70 million Saudi bid in January, they now face accepting a loss to comply with Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) and fund new signings.

Nunez has 5 goals and 3 assists in 25 Premier League games across all competitions and has only started one Premier League match since the beginning of January.

His last start in any competition coming in March against Southampton.

Fabrizio Romano confirmed in April that his exit is all but guaranteed:

“I can confirm once again, this is the clear direction of the story.”

“Darwin Nunez is expected to go.

Darwin Nunez is ready for a new chapter.”

And now the player’s price tag has been revealed ahead of the summer window.

According to Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Liverpool have set an asking price of £42.5-47m.

Furthermore, the reports claims that Napoli have now joined the queue for the Uruguayan as Antonio Conte wants to strengthen his squad.

Atlético Madrid and AC Milan have likewise been credited with an interest in the player.

Al-Hilal remains keen, having offered a £558,000-a-week contract in January?

With the Club World Cup starting June 14, a deal could materialize days after Liverpool’s season concludes on May 25.
