Liverpool has officially priced Darwin Nunez during the summer transfer, when the Uruguayan striker is likely to leave Anfield after an unexpected season as expected under the new coach Arne Slot.
Liverpool closed the price of Darwin Nunez
Joining Liverpool 3 years ago with a record fee when it was 85 million pounds, Darwin Nunez was once expected to be the leader in the attack. However, last season he scored only 5 goals and contributed 3 assists in the Premier League, and only played only 8 matches even though Liverpool was crowned the championship.
That situation made the future of Nunez at Anfield obscure. Both Napoli, Atletico Madrid and Al-Hilal have expressed interest, in which Napoli is emerging as the most potential destination.

The new coach Antonio Conte is trying to increase the fire in the attack to reduce the load for Romelu Lukaku, in the ambition to protect the throne of Serie A and go far in the Champions League next season. Nunez is a highly appreciated name for the speed, fitness and ability to move without smart balls.
However, Liverpool is currently requesting the transfer fee of about £ 70 million, which means that they are willing to accept 15 million pounds compared to the spending fee.
According to Corriere Dello Sport, President Aurelio De Laurentiis of Napoli personally involved in the negotiation. He is said to be talking directly with the representative of Fali Ramadani to find a common voice.
In the absence of an agreement with Nunez, Napoli also prepared the backup plan, Lorenzo Lita, Udinese 1m96 tall striker and Italian team. However, Lucca also costs up to £ 34 million, making the economic problem still what makes Napoli consider.
If docking Diego Armando Maradona, Nunez will have the opportunity to reunite a series of stars who used to play in the Premier League. Scott McTominay has just been voted as the best player in Serie A last season. He is standing side by side with his teammate in Scotland, Billy Gilmour, former Chelsea player.
In addition, Napoli has just successfully recruited Kevin De Bruyne and is negotiating with Rasmus Hojlund and Trevoh Chalobah, showing the great ambition of Conte in bringing the Naples team back to the peak of Europe.
