Liverpool will have to find a new buyer for Darwin Nunez after Napoli pulled the plug on negotiations.

It's been claimed that new Al-Hilal boss Simone Inzaghi has identified the former Benfica star as a target if they fail to sign Victor Osimhen, who's on loan from Napoli but hasn't reported for pre-season training.

Liverpool will be cautious of leaving themselves short in attack, however.



The Uruguay international also got on the scoresheet when Liverpool faced Preston North End in their first pre-season friendly on Sunday, another 3-1 victory.

Should Liverpool sell Darwin Nunez?

"The problem with Darwin Nunez is that he misses too many chances.

"I think it's got to the point where Arne Slot has lost confidence in him.

I think the best thing for Nunez would be to move on from Liverpool, but it won't be easy because he'll be expensive."

Babbel, speaking to Adventure Gamers, added: "I think Serie A or La Liga would be fantastic leagues for him, because the defending isn't the best in Italy and Spain - especially in Spain!

Maybe if Darwin Nunez moved to Italy or Spain, it would be easier for him to get back to his best."
