Former striker Dean Saunders criticized MU and Arsenal for skipping the opportunity to recruit Darwin Nunez, who is about to leave Liverpool to join Al-Hilal.
Signing a contract with a striker has become the top priority of many Premier League clubs this summer, including Arsenal and MU. After the injury forced Arsenal to deploy Mikel Merino in the center of the room last season, the Gunners really wanted to bring back a real striker and finally chose Sporting Lisbon's Viktor Gyokeres.
Arsenal has also carefully considered signing a contract with Benjamin Sesko, but RB Leipzig's striker seems to be ready to join MU after denying the offer from Newcastle United. However, former striker Dean Saunders criticized MU and Arsenal for missing the opportunity to recruit Darwin Nunez, who is about to leave Liverpool to join Al-Hilal.

Arsenal and MU were criticized for ignoring Darwin Nunez. |
After Liverpool recruited Hugo Ekitike, they agreed to sell Nunez to Al-Hilal for a fee of 53 million pounds. But Saunders believed that the 26 -year -old absolutely deserves to play for MU or Arsenal, he said: “I don't think Nunez is underestimated than Sesko and Gyokeres.
He could finish as well as both legs, he did not fight and shot away. I didn't know how many times he hit the vertical and crossbar, but he scored a lot of goals for Benfica and he also scored goals for Liverpool. I would not be surprised if Nunez moved to another place and scored 20 goals next season. ”
The fact that Nunez moved to Saudi Arabia could pave the way for Liverpool to continue to care about Alexander Isak, who expressed his intention to leave Newcastle this summer. The initial proposal worth £ 110 million of the Red Brigade was quickly rejected by Newcastle, but The Kop could increase the price of the Swedish striker.
