Liverpool forward Darwin Núñez is set to complete a transfer to Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, marking the end of his three-year spell at Anfield. The move is reported to be worth approximately €53 million (£46.3 million) plus add-ons, with Núñez expected to earn a net yearly wage of €15 million (£13.1 million) in Saudi Arabia. He is anticipated to undertake a medical examination in Germany within the next 24 hours before finalizing the deal.

Following Liverpool’s approval, Núñez is scheduled to say his goodbyes to teammates at the AXA Training Centre prior to flying to Germany to complete the medical. Negotiations between Liverpool and Al Hilal are in the final stages. This transfer comes shortly after Tyler Morton’s £15 million move to Lyon, indicating a busy transfer window for Liverpool.

Despite some late interest from AC Milan, Al Hilal’s financial offer has proven too strong to compete with. Núñez will sign a three-year contract with the Saudi club. His time at Liverpool was marked by mixed performances: he scored 40 goals in 143 appearances but struggled with consistency in front of goal. This move ends his stint as Liverpool’s number 9 and presents a new chapter in his career.

The transfer aligns with Al Hilal’s long-standing interest in acquiring Núñez, who was also pursued by their Riyadh rivals, Al Nassr. However, the Reds decided against selling mid-season during their Premier League title-winning campaign last year. With this deal nearing completion, Núñez’s departure represents one of Liverpool’s significant changes in their squad ahead of the new season.
