Liverpool are reportedly ready to sell Darwin Nunez this summer. The Uruguayan is unsettled and wants more regular playing time.
French journalist François Plateau reports that Nunez is frustrated with limited minutes at Liverpool. He wants to play consistently next season elsewhere.
Liverpool value him at £70 million. It remains unclear if any club will meet that price for the 25-year-old striker.

Napoli previously showed interest but walked away due to the high fee. Saudi Arabian clubs could meet Liverpool’s demands.
Nunez, formerly of Benfica, is no longer a key player at Anfield. He struggled to break into the starting eleven.
He might consider Saudi Arabia, though top-level European football remains his priority. His next move is still undecided.
Liverpool are already planning for life without him. They’ve shown interest in Newcastle’s Alexander Isak and signed Hugo Ekitike.

Liverpool’s desire for an upgrade is understandable. If they recoup £70 million, it could be seen as smart business.
At 25, Nunez still has potential. A fresh start might help him regain form and boost his career trajectory elsewhere.
