According to reports, Arne Slot, the next manager of Liverpool, wants Darwin Nunez to leave the club and intends to replace him with a superstar who is expected to arrive this summer and earn a nine-figure salary.
This audacious declaration comes at a time when Nunez is being criticized for his performance in recent events. His performance in the Premier League since March has been limited to only two goals, and Liverpool’s efforts to achieve a quadruple have been hindered by vital misses.
According to reports, Nunez cost Liverpool a total of €75 million, and Benfica is entitled an extra €25 million if specific performance standards are met.
On the other hand, The Telegraph reports that Nunez’s most ardent fan at Anfield is the departing Jurgen Klopp, which raises questions about his future.
According to a story that was published by Corriere Dello Sport and distributed by TEAMtalk, Slot is reportedly interested in replacing Nunez with the Nigerian superstar Victor Osimhen, making the Napoli player his primary priority.
Aurelio De Laurentiis, the president of Napoli, has revealed that Osimhen will be leaving the club, and he has a release clause for 113 million pounds.
It has been stated that Chelsea, Arsenal, and Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the player, particularly in light of the fact that Kylian Mbappe is most certainly going to Real Madrid.
In light of the fact that Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz’s futures are uncertain, selling Nunez would be a daring move given that he has only been with Liverpool for two seasons.
In the current market, there are not many buyers for forwards who are worth nine figures, and Liverpool would have a difficult time recouping their investment.
According to Transfermarkt, Osimhen is currently thought to be worth 110 million euros.
