Thoughts are beginning to turn to Liverpool’s summer transfer plans with just a couple of months remaining in the season, and Darwin Nunez could be the first player to make way in an Anfield shake-up.

Having lost the Carabao Cup final and been knocked out of the Champions League, the Reds’ sole focus will be on securing the Premier League title when they return from the international break.

Despite recent disappointments, Arne Slot should finish his first season with a piece of silverware, with Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta already seemingly admitting defeat in the race to become champions.

That undoubtedly represents a superb first campaign as Jurgen Klopp’s successor, but there is clearly some work for the Liverpool boss and sporting director Richard Hughes to do in the summer transfer window.

Newcastle’s Alexander Isak and Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez have both been linked with moves to Anfield, while even Harry Kane has been touted as a wildcard option.

As part of Liverpool’s efforts to refresh its attack, it seems a good bet that Nunez will have to make way, and according to Football Insider, he will actually be the first player to leave Anfield this summer.

We’re three seasons into his time at Anfield, and while he has improved his work rate, he still looks exactly the same player in front of goal.

Simply put, the Reds need a much more reliable option up front, and it only makes sense to sell Nunez in order to help fund a potential deal, so getting him out of the door as early as possible is a smart move.
